Day 27 - FLEXIBLE MIND Yoga Challenge – SOOTHE

Welcome to part of Day 27! Now that you've stretched your body with a 10 minute morning yoga class, you're ready to learn your simple daily challenge for a flexible mind.

Today's challenge is based around the one-word intention: SOOTHE

Let's do a journaling exercise by writing a letter to your inner child. Imagine your 5 year old self and write a letter to him or her. What do you want to say to that child? What would you have needed to hear at that age? What are the hopes, dreams and fears? This can be done as a stream of consciousness exercise where you don't censor or edit what you write. If you prefer to write the letter in any other format such as a poem or an essay, feel free to do that instead! Go with your intuition and focus on soothing your inner child.

Thanks for watching,

Again, this journaling turned out to be way different than I thought it would. I thanked my 5 year old self for being independent and not following the rules, for loving animals and being an adventurer. She shaped me into the rule-breaking 67 year old I am today. Never following the crowd!

[marjorysmall-gfgq]

I didn’t know I had this much to say to my 5 year old self! I asked her a lot of questions and reassured her about some of her experiences. There were tears of gratitude for my family.

[sarapoldrugovacdarst]

Wow! The letters were just pouring out of me, what a relief! I told her to love herself a little bit extra in every stage of her life and everything else in between. ❤

Amazing for me as I was a princess but at 5 I didn't want to go to school and I cried and ran around the school until my mom say ok no more school and then not wanting to work in the sun to be a farmer I decided to go and I loved school I guess so much that I spent most of my life in one as a teacher for 38 years loving my students ❤

[Sheow]

I love this practice. It always brings up a lot of emotions. Thank you for this Kassandra ❤️☺️

[stephencarrillo]

Thanks for this, Kassandra. I usually journal before going to bed but made an exception today. A little bit of forethought, but mostly stream of consciousness. The boy held a mixture of wonder and fear; the senior citizen isn't that much different so I've learned acceptance. 🙏🏼

This morning, was having a mirror talk with this child and i gave a break with my yoga sessions for a while.. this morning i decided to come again and heres what i find.. i call it energy energy energy..⚡️⚡️⚡️

[medharanidevidasi]

I love the idea! I have a 5 year old daughter so it'll help me visualize myself at that age and my needs and thoughts and attitudes then.

[moonmagicflows]

I love these morning ten minute soft gentle flows paired with mindfulness not only in the yoga portion, but for after to simmer ❤️🙏🏼

[nazokashii]

Goodness. This really will be very special for me... I have heard and thought of doing something like this, but never done so, so thank you for the prompt <3

[kennethmontoya]

[ivonnetorres]

This is gonna be tough. I was in a boarding school since young. At 5 I never dreamed I would be in a boarding school. I’m giving it my old today to this challenge. Thank you Kassandra ❤

[fernandolspptagr]

Related with this beautiful practice I recommend the book Reconciliation: Healing the Inner Child by Thich Nhat Hanh. It's an inspiring source to bring love to our inner child. Namaste.

[shaqmarable]

You have helped growth by leaps and bounds now I get to share my joy with others

[vickywitton]

I want to tel my 5 year old self that one day she will find out what is wrong with her but I dont want to tell her what a long tough road it will be before she does. I also want to tell her she is beautiful and not to let other people, including her own mother, tell her different

[margaretmatthews]

I will have to think about this! This is fascinating. Many thanks.

[janeybakarbessy]

My childhood was a heard one so if there is one thing I could have said; you survived it but you lost your childhood and never knew how it was to be a kid cause you had to grow up in an instance. Did I forgive that was an easy word but did I forget? Know I carry it daily.

[tahereharab]

It is 27 seven days i am doing morning yoga with you and really thank you❤❤❤❤❤

[karlabanares]

[audreytotheworld]
