This is a guide to help you focus on rebalancing your life and your body. It is not a religious practice. It is a simple way to keep your attention on a different part of that balance each day.
Element, season, direction, animal, and shape are images for the petal. The elements in this chart are earth, water, fire, air, ether, light, and thought. Use the picture that helps you remember the day. The animal and the yantra are symbols, not assignments.
Name the element once, then do the breath. If you want a picture, use the shape or the animal as something to look at, not something to collect.
