| Activities | Centering (5 min): Centering and grounding Discussion and Check -In (10-12 min): discussed how things went for her during the holidays. My client was traveling all Nov/Dec so we spent some time talking about her travels and if anything came up for her during this time. Breathwork (10 min): revisited 3-part breath and Nadi Suddhi. Talked a bit about whether she practiced any pranayama over the past couple months as well as how the breathwork felt in her body today. Asana (20-30 min): Started in a seated position and moved into some gentle side stretches, forward folds etc. Came into table top, cat/cow, gate pose w/ lateral stretches. Came up to downward dog into a high plank and added in some core strengthening moves. Ended practice on the back coming into happy baby, spinal twist, waterfall and then onto back for final relaxation. Relaxation (10 min): Body Scan Closing (5 min): Discussed moving forward since my client is traveling again. She mentioned wanting to get back into a regular routine w/ sessions but said she can't commit until April. |
| Client/Group progress summary | It was good to meet w/ NZ after all this time and I kept the session basic returning back to breathwork techniques we've done already, and focusing on a lot of asana in our session today. She seemed happy to be back and seems committed to start regularly in April. This is her first year "retired" and her and her husband have spent the better part of the year traveling for vacation as well as visiting family so it seems that due to this, her commitment is not entirely there, but I think her intentions are strong. |
| Reflection and self-evaluation | I’m really pleased with the connection I’ve built with this client so far. From the beginning, our sessions have felt open and genuine, and we’ve developed a strong sense of trust. She seems comfortable in my presence, willing to share, and receptive to the practices we're exploring together. That level of comfort allows us to go deeper, both in conversation and in movement or breathwork. I’m looking forward to continuing our work, supporting her growth, and seeing how her journey evolves both on and off the mat upon her return. |
| 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 | We are planning to meet back in April when she returns. |
