Week 1
Awaken the heart space
Welcome to week one!
In this first week we take the time to re-connect to the heart, a space which we can sometimes feel disconnected to when we are caught up in the busyness of our lives.
There are many energies associated with the heart. This week your are invited to tap into this space of love and compassion, allow yourself to let go of fear and move into a more heart centred way of being.
How this program works
We recommend that every day you commit to:
The Heart Opening Flow
The Heart Meditation
Do your best to add some other heart centred practices
We encourage you to start a journal at the start of the 3 weeks, allow yourself to get expressive and watch your journey to the heart unfold.
If you have more time add in another of our suggested practices at the bottom of the page.
Additional Practices & Activities you can try
Gentle yin yoga (try our heart chakra healing!)
