A 40-DAY MEDITATION PRACTICE: KIRTAN KRIYA

A 40-day personal practice, or Sadhana, is when an individual selects a meditation to do for 40 consecutive days. If you miss a day, you return to Day 1 and begin again to work toward 40-days. It can be done at any time of day, but people often finds that they start to prefer to practice the same time each day. 

While positive psychology research shows it takes 21-days to form a habit, there is a specific shift that happens after doing something for 40-days, 90-days, and 120-days consecutively. For our purposes, we're inviting you to participate in a 40-day practice of the Kirtan Kriya Meditation during this six-week course (see the description on the following page).

This meditation has been intentionally chosen for women seeking to conceive due to its powerful influence to improve circulation and promote hormonal balance. You will see from the description that there is an 11-minute or 31-minute version. Decide where you want to start. You're more than welcome to extend the times from 11-minutes to 31-minutes if you feel called half-way through but once you start practicing for 31-minutes it's recommended that you don't reduce it.

If the thought of a 40-day practice feels intimidating, just try it and approach it with curiosity one day at a time. Much in the same way a book club turns a solo activity into a shared experience, this collective commitment acts like an energetic container connecting you with the other mamas-to-be who are participating in this self-paced program.

Whether you're new to this meditation or know it well, you'll start to develop a different relationship with it by the end of this course. Check out the embedded link for both versions of Nirinjan Kaur's recordings via Spotify.
