Day Seven - Daily Meditation:

 

Staying True to Your Sankalpa:

Hopefully, you are beginning to feel the effects of your sankalpa resonating as you make choices and move through your day. To keep this momentum, begin to increase your the length of your meditation practice - perhaps moving from 5 to 10 minutes to a solid 15 minutes.

Continue again today to meditate on your chosen sankalpa, without changing it, without adjusting it, without being distracted by other intentions or obligations that may come up.  Stay true to your heart felt intention. Let it be the center of your meditation practice. 

Find a quiet time and place, free from distractions.

Set a timer for 15 minutes. Sit or lie comfortably.

- Begin by focusing on your breath, allowing it to become smooth and calm.

- Recall your sankalpa - or intention - that you created in our initial yoga nidra session.

- Let your work be to resist allowing the mind to drift. Stay resolute in your commitment and focus on your sankalpa. 

- Repeat your sankalpa to yourself, in rhythm with your breath.

- Once your timer ends, repeat your sankalpa one last time.

- Bring your hands to prayer at heart center and thank yourself for taking this time to commit to your sankalpa and your meditation.
