| Core Module Name | Stress Management | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Plan Information | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Selected key teaching (specific core concept): | Guided visualization/imagery as a tool for stress management, and to promote a sense of peace for relaxation for better sleep. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goal for implementation with client (Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time-bound relating to the client): | Goal for client is to improve their sleep by incorporating 10-15 minutes of recorded guided imagery to their routine. Client is hopeful he can sleep through the night, without waking up multiple times, or during the early morning hours. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Relevant Client(s) Details | Male, late 30s, full-time hospitality industry career. Reports no health concerns. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Report Information | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| How did you envision working with the client(s) to incorporate the selected teaching? (Define the plan) | I see this client everyday, and have a comfortable rapport with them. This client has worked with me previously for private yoga sessions, and has now requested a guided imagery recording of my voice for them to use during times of the day that work best for them. I plan on incorporating elements that make a guided imagery session a little more personal, tailored to their goal, and their likes. For example, I know this client loves the sound of running water, like a brook, or a stream. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| What branch(es) of IY did you use? How does each support your goal/relate to the key teaching? | Raja Yoga because the client will use the powers of their mind to manage change. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Short notes on time with client: | Because I see this client everyday there were regular conversations checking in on their quality of sleep, and if they had time to meditate. They were appreciative of the recordings, but we both agree that being in-person would ideal. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Follow up suggestions for your client (whether with you or on their own): | Continued daily use of guided meditation. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Reflection | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Did you apply your intended plan once you met with the client(s)? Was the goal achieved? Explain. | Yes it was. The client reports feeling a difference in the quality of their sleep, and has noticed they become aware of their physical body throughout the day, and they have learned how to release tension they notice, like in their shoulders or jaw. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Did you have to adapt anything in your plan? What lessons did you learn? | I learned how difficult it is to pace a recorded visualization without having a person in front of you. I had to make several attempts at re-recording to get the pacing down to a more relaxed and therapeutic speed. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| If you are faced with the same situation again in the future, would you approach it in the same way? Why or why not? What went well? What you might change and why? Summarize. | I would want a weekly check-in with the client, and see how we can change the goal, or make tweaks along the way. Daily communication felt unnecessary, and is more difficult to track results. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Will you be uploading suplimental images or documents? | No | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Upload supplemental images or documents | |||||||||||||||||||||||
