I love this mantra! I feel like you could apply this theme to
many different sequences/classes depending on the setting
(outdoors) and season.

Oh, the uplifting jazz! Do you know any artists? I don't, so now
I'm curious about what kind of playlist you'd create! The mantra
of being grateful is amazing, and I hope you use this in the
future and incorporate the reminders during all the poses you
listed.

Waves sound amazing and so soothing, Olivia! The mantra you
created for the theme is powerful, and the poses you offered to
remind your students. I hope you use this in the future.

Wonderful theme Erin; trust yourself. Simple, direct, and I'm a
sucker for lofi beats. Lofi beats are trustworthy when it comes
to casual background chill music. I like how you put in head
stand for a pose, to trust seeing the world from a different
perspective.

Self Love is that sweet reminder, and the follow-up mantra of "I
deserve to treat myself well" is integral, and the sound bowls
are a lovely touch. Ditto on the classical piano covers.

Surpass your limits is riveting! So many poses to incorporate
the theming and Three little birds! I love it!
Sound hertz are deep and penetrating. It goes well with the
chanting you suggested, and Deva Premal's voice is out of this
world!
