Design Your Sadhana
Most of us don't struggle to find a practice. We struggle to keep one. This workbook helps you build one that fits the life you actually have.
Sadhana is a Sanskrit word for personal practice: the small, steady act of coming back to yourself each day. In six gentle steps, you design yours around your real day, your energy and one clear intention, in three sizes, so it survives busy weeks and hard days.
- ArriveReflect honestly on your relationship with practice so far.
- MapSee the real shape of your day and your energy.
- IntendChoose one intention and connect it to a sankalpa.
- DesignBuild your practice in three sizes from a menu of options.
- PracticeTry it in your body and refine it by how it feels.
- CommitSet your forty days and plan for the days you miss.
Includes a practice menu with guided practices you can do with me, a practice card to keep, and a tracker for your forty days.
Inside the workbook
Five things to remember
The ideas the whole workbook rests on. If you only take one with you, take the last one.
Small and daily beats long and rare
Five minutes every day roots deeper than an hour once a week.
Intention gives it life
A practice tied to a clear why becomes devotion rather than discipline.
Every day has a minimum
Three sizes mean there is always a version small enough to do.
Return without judgment
Missed days are part of practice. The return is the practice.
From people who practice with me
From my morning course on Insight Timer, five days of short practices, which uses the same kind of journaling prompts you will find in the workbook.
I loved this course, the impactful messaging that was simple and not overwhelming. I also appreciated the prompts to answer 3 questions and then the time to journal.
An inspiring class with lots of good ideas and practices. Worth repeating especially for the journaling prompts which gave me positive direction for the morning and the whole day.
Insight Timer listenerMorning Goddess, a 5 day course This was great. Helped me see I was holding myself back in some area and not moving with intention and flow even when I felt called to do so.
RobinMorning Goddess, a 5 day course Wonderful track, perfect for a long journaling and reflection practice.
