• Wed Evening: Oct 6-Nov 17, 7-8:30pm EST
How to do the 40-Day Practice:
• Ideal Situation
Each woman will create a quiet, private place in the house with candles and soft lighting for daily yoga, meditation, and journaling practice. She will meet in the same place for a weekly, uninterrupted conference call.
• Real Situation
The efficient and productive woman leading a full life will do her yoga wherever she can; the lunchroom at work, in her mini-van, or on the kitchen floor while cooking dinner. She will listen in on the weekly conference call and press the “mute” option while serving dinner, helping with homework or driving to soccer practice.
Details: a 90 minute teleconference call once a week, 15-30 minutes of daily yoga and journaling. A video clip and detailed instructions for yoga, journaling and conference calls will be emailed when you enroll. You will need a folder for materials, a journal, a timer, an email
address and the ability to print documents.
