Day 7 - New Year's 2026 Ignite Your Intention

🌟 Day 7: Halfway There — Take a Moment to Reflect

Wednesday, January 7th

Congratulations—you’ve made it to Day 7, the halfway point of this journey. That’s a huge accomplishment!

You've been showing up, even on the hard days, and creating space for your growth, breath, and intention. Take a moment to acknowledge that. 🙌

This challenge isn’t about checking boxes. It’s about deepening your relationship with yourself—your body, your goals, your why. So today, pause and reflect. What’s shifted for you? Where have you surprised yourself? What’s felt harder than expected?

All of that is information. All of it is growth.

Your two class options are below—one beginner-friendly, one more challenging. Choose what feels right, or explore another class from our YogaDownload library if your body is asking for something different. Just make sure you honor your practice and celebrate how far you’ve come.

🗣️ We’d love to hear your reflections! Scroll below to the comments section and share your thoughts:
→ What are you most proud of at this halfway mark?
→ Which class did you choose and what did you like or dislike about it?

Every comment counts as an entry to win one of our four amazing end-of-challenge prize packages!

📝 Journal/Thought Prompt of the Day:

Q. What have you learned about yourself—physically, mentally, or emotionally—during the first 7 days of this challenge? What intention do you want to carry into the second half?

Write your response in a journal or simply think about the response to yourself.

Here are today's class options:

The Practice of Fullness with Christen Bakken

40 min class

Level: All Levels | Intensity: Everyday Namaste

If it is true that we breathe at 30% of our potential, do we also practice yoga at 30%? Live our lives at 30%? Understanding our own capacity to take a full breath invites the opportunity to explore our capacity to move in a full way and live in a full way. This simple, yet flow-filled class, will challenge the breath and the body. Through sun salutations and deeper pose work, we will explore where we are playing small and dive courageously into a fuller expression.

Morning Power Boost with Jackie Casal Mahrou

35 min class

Level: Intermediate | Intensity: Everyday Namaste

Begin your day with movement, intention, and presence. This 30 minute class will boost your energy through mindful flow, breath, strength and length, while giving you space to let go of negativity and move towards your own intentions. Enjoy!

You only need to choose one class.

*If you're feeling in the mood for something different you can choose any of our free classes on our site (or any other class you'd like if you have a membership). The most important thing is to show up and get on your mat!

OVERVIEW OF THE CHALLENGE

🔥 Ignite Your Intention: A FREE 2-Week Online New Year Yoga Challenge

Start strong. Move with purpose. Step into your year aligned.

There’s no better way to begin the new year than by committing to yourself—your body, your goals, your well-being. The Ignite Your Intention Challenge is your invitation to start 2026 with clarity, consistency, and powerful daily movement.

Over the course of 14 days, you’ll receive two class options each day—one beginner-friendly and one intermediate-level—so you can choose the practice that best supports your energy, goals, and experience level.

Whether you’re looking to build strength, reduce stress, create a new habit, or simply reconnect with yourself, this challenge will help you stay focused and aligned from the very beginning of the year.

Practicing yoga consistently—even just once a day—can dramatically improve your physical health, boost your mood and energy, improve sleep and increase mental clarity. And when you pair that movement with intention, you create real momentum that carries into everything else you do.

This is more than just a challenge—it’s a reset, a recommitment, and a way to plant the seeds for a strong, centered, and intentional year ahead.

🔥 Don’t wait for change—create it. Join now and start 2026 with purpose.
