5×5 Yoga Challenge: November 2023

🌟 Join the 5 x 5 Yoga Challenge – Embrace Generosity and Self-Reflection! 🌟


Are you searching for a way to infuse a bit of mindfulness into your busy life? I’ve got the perfect solution for you: the “5 x 5 Yoga Challenge.” As a certified yoga teacher with over 250 hours of teaching experience, I’m thrilled to guide you through this journey to wellness and self-discovery. Instead of focusing on the physical aspect of yoga, we’re delving into the inner practice.



Challenge Details:

📅 When: 5 consecutive days in November.

Duration: Only 5 minutes each day – a small but impactful commitment.


Theme: Cultivating Generosity (Asteya)

This challenge isn’t just about poses; it’s about embracing the spirit of yoga philosophy. One of the jewels from Patanjali’s yoga sutras is “asteya”, which translates to “non-stealing”, but if it’s non-stealing, then what is it? What is the opposite of stealing, or taking something that isn’t yours? I tend to think of it as “gratitude” or “reciprocity.”, and that’s why they’re the focus of this month’s challenge.

Whether you choose a computer or pen and paper, what matters most is the act of self-reflection (svadhyaya).
