Week #5 - 5 Count Breath / Face my Obstacles

Welcome back to Summer Book Club. How is it going so far? I would love to hear from you. Drop me a line and let me know how you have used the book so far this summer!

This week we focus on a new breath (color a Wave after trying it). It is on page 30 in the book. Flip there, read along, and take a listen.

This track is available everywhere you stream music or here on YouTube.

After completing that page, it is time for your 1st activity in the journal this week. “My Gratitude 5”. The same why breath can help ground you, finding things in the moment to be grateful for can do the same.

Sometimes it feels like our mind is stuck in a loop of looking for the bad, or what is going wrong. We can break that cycle by REFRAMING our thoughts to positive ones. Try the activity on page 31 and see what you can come up with. Then SHARE a photo of your answers with a family member, friend, or even on Social Media. I would love to see you following along. Here is our Facebook Page.

“Face Your Obstacles” is the next thing I would love for you to try this week. Here is a video walking you through the yoga sequence. Take a minute to watch the intro video.

Now that you have an understanding of the poses you can try it to the music. Pay special attention to the lyrics. It is a powerful song encouraging you to turn inward when obstacles are in your way, or life gets a little hard. Give it a try and let me know what you think!

This track (music and vocal lyrics only) can be found on the album or here on YouTube.

Then turn to pages 37-40 and complete the follow up activities. Take your time and do them over a few days.
