Miguel Chen
is a musician, author, and teacher of yoga (E-RYT 500) and meditation. As a musician, he is the bassist (and a songwriter) for relentless punk-rock stalwarts Teenage Bottlerocket, whose latest album, Sick Sesh!, is out now. As an author, Miguel has published I Wanna Be Well: How a Punk Found Peace and You Can Too and The Death Of You: A Book for Anyone Who Might Not Live Forever, both of which combine his passion for music, yoga, and spirituality. He has also written a children’s book, The Virus, illustrated by David Buist. When not touring with Teenage Bottlerocket, Miguel leads teachings online and in person at the self-owned Blossom Yoga in Cheyenne Wyoming, Espace Mieux Etre Rosemont in Montreal, Quebec, and through his program Yoga for Punks. Miguel previously served as the center director of the Dallas Meditation Center.
He and his various modes of expression have been featured on CNN, The Washington Post, Lion’s Roar, Spin, Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, New Noise magazine, and plenty more.
