| Homework assignment to client/group | Homework assignment to client/group: |
| Activities | 4 sessions - 1 summary - 90 min each session with a restorative pose with extended meditation - at clients request Activities: Warm up, Japa movements Strengthening and lengthening movements to help with back: wall sits, dead bug, towel slides in plank pose, bridge pose with towel slide, bird dog. Sun A, high lunge, W2, W3, dancer Restorative pose with extended yoga nidra. Client has also been taking my restorative class during the week. The client reports that he's been enjoying the weather and my suggestion of being in nature that he's been working on his resume and job hunting at the beach. He sets up his chair, uses his phone as a hotspot and work on the beach. He reports that it has really helped clear his mind. However he doesn't to it all the time because its 1 1/2 hour drive home. |
| Client/Group progress summary | Client says his back is feeling much better and because he's not at his job, the stress of that has subsided but now he feels the stress of finding a job. The weight of money, lack of job has caused a new stress for him. He is still meeting with his therapist and now has a career coach, resume writing team. |
| Reflection and self-evaluation | We shall see if the client is trying the mediation in the shower. If the suggestion doesn't fit into the clients schedule, he's reluctant to do it. I have to incorporate into his daily life. Win for me: he really likes relaxation meditation/yoga nidra |
| 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 | Continue with strengthening and lengthening the muscles of his low back. Wabi-Sabi-the Japanese concept that embraces the beauty of imperfection. Recognize that everything is incomplete, imperfect including ourselves. It encourages us to find beauty in imperfections, such as life's losses, cracks in our things but it also can help us find strength and beauty in the process of healing and repair and help us face challenges rather than finding fault in them. |
