Week 1: Dream - March 20th-27th, 2022

Week 3: Dare - April 3rd-10th, 2022
Time to plant seeds! The magnificent things you want out of life will come from daring to try - but you can’t forget that you need a secure container to dare from.

Week 5: Deepen - April 17th-24th, 2022

Week 6: Delight - April 24th-May 1st, 2022

What if I can't join every live session?
No worries! Every live class is saved and will be uploaded to the course portal for you to view at any time.
How do the weekly sharing sessions work?
In the course, you will learn all about the process of sharing, but you can expect these sessions to be supportive, nurturing, safe, and completely confidential. Every week, you will meet with a pre-determined small group virtually with cameras on, in or near your local time zone to share from the heart on various topics and prompts provided to you that relate to each week’s lessons. These more intimate sharing sessions will take place at a time and day mutually decided by you and your small group.
How much time do I need to dedicate to this course each week?
We’ve created this course in a way that spaces everything out so you can focus on bits at a time throughout the week, such as before or after work, or you can commit to more lessons on days that you know you’ll be off of work and have more free time. If you miss an activity or two, no sweat! You can always return to those and finish them at a later time that’s more convenient for you. While each week will vary slightly, we recommend setting aside around 8-10 hours each week to spend time outside, practice nature rituals, attend live sessions, move your body, meditate, meet for sharing sessions, journal, and complete each week’s lesson activities. Please know, however, that it’s completely up to you how you progress through this course. If you are unable to dedicate this amount of time each week, you are free to pick and choose which activities resonate with you in any given moment and take your time processing each week’s lessons.
What if I get busy and can’t keep up with the course materials?
You will have lifetime access to the HOME course after purchasing. Although we recommend that you complete the course material every week, we understand that each week may be different, so you are welcome to adapt this course to your own pace and adjust it as you see fit with your schedule. The good news is that the HOME course materials and live session recordings will always be there for you, and you will continue to have access even after the course comes to a close.
I live in a city with no access to natural spaces, can I still join?
Yes! This course was created for everyone and anyone that is looking to deepen their connection to nature and themselves. This course was also created to serve as a reminder that nature isn’t just a place you go - you are nature. Know that no matter what your living situation is, you will be able to adapt and customize the lessons, practices, and rituals to your local area.
Do I need any yoga experience to join this course?
No! While some yoga experience may be helpful, all movement-based classes have been designed for all-levels in mind and with different variations and/or recommended props suggested as applicable. The HOME course offers many opportunities to listen to and trust your own body, and we hope you do just that! With that said, if you have questions or concerns about a specific medical condition or particular physical activity, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at info@yogagirl.com and consult with your medical doctor.
I’m pregnant. Can I still participate?
Yes! With the movement-based classes offered in the HOME course, different variations and/or recommended props will be suggested as applicable so you can make adjustments to suit your body and personal needs. Additionally, most physical meditation practices that will be offered can be adapted to suit the different stages of pregnancy, but if you have questions or concerns about a particular physical activity, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us and consult with your medical doctor for alternatives. If you decide it's best to forgo a particular movement class or physical activity while you are pregnant, you can return to those at any time in the future that works best for you and your body.
What do I need to prepare for this course?
Pre-course orientation materials and other resources will become available to you in your course dashboard upon signup to help you prepare leading up to the course start date.
How long will I have access to the course materials?
Upon enrolling, you will gain access to the first pre-course materials as they become available, and you can expect to gain access to additional pre-course orientation materials in March before we officially kick off the course and Week 1 on Sunday, March 20th, 2022.
Once the course comes to a close on Sunday, May 8th, 2022, you will maintain lifetime access to all course materials so that you can continue to review and revisit all lessons, rituals, activities, or practices.
