It was lovely to meet all of you and I am so excited to embark on this journey with you. ✨

I encourage all of you who have yoga packages to keep up a daily practice at the Shala or use our video channel. 

Today and tomorrow are great days for prepping your kitchen, and your home and starting to shop for your food. Day 4 will probably be best for getting those fresh veggies. 

Here are your optional daily challenges. ☺️

1) Create a Cleanse Altar: Like we did yesterday! This doesn't need to be large or elaborate, but you can create a tangible reminder in your home (or office...or wherever else you are inspired) of the sacred space we are carving out this week together. If you already have an altar space in your home, you might consider adding a few objects to it specifically to support you through the cleanse.

You can use any objects you wish, but some ideas include: fresh flowers, fallen leaves, a small jar or other vessel of water, spices, rocks or crystals, artwork, poems, or anything else that inspires you.

Bonus points: snap and share a picture of your altar space in our group forum!

2) Clean your house (or certain areas you will be spending the most time in): When we plan to purify our inner selves, it’s really helpful to also purify our external environments. This reduces stress and allows us to focus on our goal at hand - connecting to ourselves!

3) Keep sipping that warm water. 

As always, I'm here for any questions you have or support you may need. And, please take a moment to check in to the forum today and tell us how the start has been for you.

Have a great day – and please don't hesitate to reach out for support at any point if you need it!

In good health,
Ara
