Live Satsang 4/6/25 - Root to Rise - Apana + Prana, Samana + Vyana Vayu
This month we're exploring Root to Rise, or the balance of energy required for growth. To rise and expand, we must also contract and ground.
I came up with several journal prompts for you to explore this month on this topic, in hopes something captures your fancy for some deeper self-inquiry and exploration. Your growth and up-leveling depends on your grounding and turning inward. To grow and expand we must equally take time to inquire within, care for yourself, explore your boundaries and growth edges!

Time stamps:
0:00-32:00 - Root to Rise, Vayus, Balance
32:00-1:13 - Soul Circle
Journal Prompts:
Rooting:
o What grounds you? What provides stability and nourishment in your life?
o Consider the ways in which you currently cultivate stability. Are your roots deep enough to sustain new growth?
o What areas of your life feel disconnected from a strong foundation? Where do you feel ungrounded?
o How do you restore yourself when life feels chaotic? What are the practices that bring you back to center?
o Where do you feel or not feel rooted in your truth?
Rising:
o Where are you feeling called to grow right now?
o What new expansion is emerging for you this season?
o How do you ensure that your growth is not just outward but also deeply intentional and aligned?
o Where have you been pushing for expansion without first ensuring a strong foundation?
o In what ways can you embrace patience in your rising, knowing that deep roots take time to develop?
