Ecosattva Class Group Guidelines

• Speak from the heart. Don’t over intellectualize what’s being said. 
• Listen without judgment or criticism
• Allow yourself to be authentic
• Confidentiality  –  Ok to talk about general content and what we’re learning but not attributing anything said to any one person. 
• Stepping forward, stepping back. 
• Avoid cross talk
• Ask permission for a question

Home Practices Between Week 1 and Week 2

Formal – Work with grounding and settling the body. Sitting & walking. 

Informal – Go to the same place in nature, each day if you can.

Talk about resourcing in relation to this.  

Walking softly on the earth. Connecting kindly with the earth as we walk. 

Watch session 1 if you haven’t already. Pay attention to the resources that Kaira Jewel offers.

Watch session 2. I suggest taking notes as you go so you can refer to them during our group.
