| Session Number | 3 |
| Total Session Minutes | 105 |
| Homework assignment to client/group | Include full diaphragmatic breathing in her daily routine, including noticing how it affected her natural breath and sense of calm. Add rowboat to her daily physical practice. |
| Activities | Care plan minus Netra vyayamam, anjaneyasana, ujjayi, serenity prayer, and metta meditation. Spent time practicing diaphragmatic breathing. |
| Client/Group progress summary | Diaphragmatic breathing is becoming more natural and easeful for the client, gaining skill to progress to other pranayama practices such as ujjayi. Client continues her daily PT exercises. She now links the breath to the movements, finding the exhales release her more fully into the stretches. Bhramari pranayama while in crocodile readily calms her, lowering her anxiety. She has an interest in the vagus nerve and has emailed me an article about vagal tone. |
| Reflection and self-evaluation | Her mother’s third reoccurrence of breast cancer and the possibility of the cancer being hereditary is weighing heavily on the client. She appreciates the yoga therapy sessions, finding them relaxing and refreshing. Incorporate wisdom teaching and spirituality up front. Remember the client’s faith sustains and uplifts her. Find ways of integrating yoga philosophy naturally, complimenting her spiritual beliefs. |
| 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 | Follow care plan. Include serenity prayer and metta meditation. Teach client Netra vyayamam and ujjayi pranayama. Inquire about client’s regularity of reciting the rosary. Does she find it calming? In what ways? Encourage consistency with reflection. |
