Client/Group progress summary	It sounds like the client is making great progress! It's wonderful to hear that she's incorporating more exercise into her daily routine and that her children are joining her in meditation and Nadi Suddhi. The insight about not everything requiring a reaction is profound, even though it's challenging. It's fantastic that she feels energized from Nadi Suddhi and finds it versatile enough to practice anywhere. The sessions seem to be providing her with a valuable opportunity to reset, and it's great that she experienced a release in her shoulder during the rotator cuff triangular forearm exercise.
Reflection and self-evaluation	Establishing trust with the client is progressing nicely. We have established mutual respect and honesty.
Final Client/Group Report	After seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake) Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
Plan for next session	Introduce breath of joy for energy during the day.
