Karma & Circular Breath Project

Final Project Details (Due January 19th):

1. Write and Record A 500-Word Essay/Presentation:

• Write on the topic of karma, reflecting on the deeper yogic perspective we’ve explored in class.

• Alternatively, you may choose to write about circular breath, detailing and mapping it out in depth. Both are excellent topics!

2. Record a 5-10 minute Guided Meditation:

• Teach a 10-minute circular breath meditation.

• You can assume your students already have some context for the circular breath from a prior introduction. Start guiding them directly, mapping out the breath pathway briefly (e.g., bringing attention to the third eye, throat, heart, etc.).

• Don’t feel rushed—take the time you need to guide the practice effectively, even if it goes a bit over 10 minutes.

3. Upload Your work to the comments section of this page

4. Give Feedback:

• As always, listen to and respond to a couple of other students’ projects to complete this week’s assignment.
