Before You Arrive
Eat a light meal 1 to 2 hours before your session — you do not want to be hungry or overly full. Stay hydrated throughout the day. Avoid caffeine and alcohol for at least a few hours before. Set your intention for the session, even if it is simply to relax and receive.
When You Arrive
Plan to arrive 10 minutes early. This gives you time to use the restroom, meet the team, and settle onto your mat without feeling rushed. Silence your phone completely — not just vibrate. Remove any jewelry or accessories that might be uncomfortable while lying down.

During the Session
There is nothing you need to do. Lie comfortably, close your eyes, and breathe naturally. Some people like to place their hands on their heart or belly. Let go of expectations about what you should feel. If thoughts arise, acknowledge them and let them pass. If you fall asleep, that is perfectly fine.
After the Session
Move slowly. Drink water. Avoid checking your phone immediately. Give yourself at least 15 to 30 minutes of gentle transition time before resuming your normal pace. Journal if you feel called to. The integration continues for hours after the session ends.
