Please include at least one suggestion from Karma, Bhakti, Raja, or Jnana Yoga tailored for this client/group.
Over time, we want to see something from each branch, selected, adapted and re-framed appropriately. Tools from each module should be used (not on each client/group – but overall)
The outline should show the sequence of practices as you plan to offer them. Your care plan proposal should be approved by the mentor before session 2 if possible, or 3 if approval is delayed by mentor.

cat cow with going into child pose then puppy pose as much as tolerated.
Then we paused, he iced his shoulder and I led him in a guided relaxation with the picture of imagining an iceberg melting away to unfreeze his shoulder and we talked about non attachment.
Then going on to the back in savasana, knee to chest pose with rolling sideways, then isometric core exercise with holding the knees in place by pressing against my palm holing to the count of 5 and 3 repetitions.

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
I will continue with the same plan and monitor his progress .
When appropriate I will also add thread the needle and half dog to the poses.
