In a Nutshell

Meditative yoga session gives way to DJs’ electro beats and live bands’ rock mantras at this healthy, substance-free party

The Fine Print

Yoga is a much easier way to exercise both mind and body than testing Einstein's theory of relativity by racing a beam of light. Travel at lithe speed with this GrouponLive deal to Yoga Rave Chicago at Logan Square Auditorium. For $17, you get one general-admission ticket for Friday, October 19, at 7 p.m. (up to a $28 value, including fees). Doors open at 6 p.m. and the event closes at 11 p.m. Yoga Rave Chicago is an all-ages event.

Unlike anyone nicknamed Tiny, Yoga Rave is just what it says it is. The event opens with warm-up poses, exercises, and a guided meditation before the hardwood floor explodes into a club-worthy jubilee flooded with pulsing lights and electronic beats spun into the air by DJs and live musicians. At a Yoga Rave event in Manhattan in May 2012, the New York Times declared it “downward dog at the club."

With a fall 2012 tour scheduled for stops in L.A., San Francisco, Philadelphia, and Chicago, Yoga Rave is a combination concept that has blossomed since its original initiative by the 30-year-old Art of Living Foundation. These spiritual, nonprofit founders herald the event as an evening of music, movement, and meditation that capitalizes on natural enthusiasm rather than excitement sparked by drugs, alcohol, or spiked soy milk. The party’s entertainment centerpiece has been the So What Project, an Argentinian duo who sample electro beats and rock riffs alongside 1,000-year-old mantras. To refuel, ravers can visit a bar stocked with gourmet vegetarian food and exotic drinks that are energizing and alcohol-free.

Proceeds raised benefit YesPlus, an organization dedicated to bringing young people yoga, meditation, and stress reduction. For sights and sounds from the Philadelphia Yoga Rave earlier this year, check out this video. Sample the sounds of the So What Project at their MySpace page.

Logan Square Auditorium

The quaint stage and rustic second-story bannister of the Logan Square Auditorium would fit right in at any small-town ballroom. But the venue lies just steps away from the actual Logan Square, a bustling urban neighborhood landmarked by an eagle perched atop the marble column of the Illinois Centennial Monument. The auditorium earned the distinction of being named 2009’s Best All-Ages Venue by the Chicago Reader, which praised it for booking a blend of diverse acts that “just makes it more lovable.”

The Groupon Guide to: Finding a Thing of Money

Although everyone gets out of bed each day hoping that today will be the day they finally happen upon a life-altering thing of unclaimed money, finding a thing of money actually comes with intractable legal and ethical ramifications. What steps must you take before you have legal and moral right to a found thing of money?

• Alert the police that you have found a thing of money. Give them your phone number in the event that someone reports that exact size of a thing of money missing. Do not give them your name.

• Hang fliers around the area where you found the thing of money. Fliers about a free thing of money will likely attract ne'er-do-wells, so instead, have the fliers read: “Found: an item. Could be good, could be bad. Can you prove you lost something by guessing what I have found? We shall see.”

• At the end of 30 days, if you feel fairly confident you have done everything humanly possible to find the thing of money’s original owner, go to your nearest charity. Dump half of the money into the charity’s mail slot. The remainder of the money is yours to keep, you good-hearted citizen.
