Hari Om! Every week, we’ll be updating this post with the Reflection Adventure of the Week. We encourage you to reflect + respond in the comments below.
- RAW for Week 30 (5/5/21):Consider the plan you made for your identified goal. Check your email for the prompt for this week’s RAW — the one word, one tagline. And email to Sumanji…. ‘Cause it’s related to a surprise. 🙂
- RAW for Week 29 (4/28/21): Every time you shower, immerse yourself in the coldest water for at least 15 seconds… at the END of your shower.
- RAW for Week 28 (4/21/21): Each morning, spend 5 minutes looking at your plan (from Activity) in terms of the three R’s (Refine, Remember, and Realize)
- RAW for Week 27 (4/19/21): Keep a tally of every time you avoid a responsibility and write down why.

- RAW for Week 25 (3/31/21): Each day before bed, write down 3 things you’re grateful for. When you wake up in the morning, start by reading these — start by embracing your day contented.
- RAW for Week 24 (3/24/21): Dialogue with Sumanji – Write down whatever you have been struggling with the most in the past month, 6 months, your whole life. Not just a word, tell me why is it your struggle? what are you holding on to? Can you let it go? Be as real and detailed as possible.
- RAW for Week 23 (3/17/21): Each morning, write down one virtue that you would like to develop. Try to keep that ideal in your mind at all times throughout the day.

- RAW for Week 17 (2/3/21): Every time you find yourself judging you or another, – make a tally. For each judgement – pay someone a compliment that isn’t based on appearances
- RAW for Week 16 (1/27/21): Bake some cookies this week, or some sort of treat that you think is delicious! Here’s the catch — once you’ve made them, don’t eat any… Leave them for others. While you are working to make these treats, knowing you won’t get to eat them, what sort of thoughts do you observe in yourself? What is the caliber of your effort? When they are done and you are giving them away, what is your mental state like?
- RAW for Week 15 (1/20/21): Lead a task in your house for the next week, for example: getting and sorting the mail; overseeing recycling; planning for a family meal each day. Observe the effect taking lead has on you AND your family members.
