Yoga Life's 40 Early Mornings Challenge 2024


Join your Yoga Life community in yoga asana, pranayama, chanting, affirmations, and meditation for the first 40 days of 2024. Whether you’re looking to discover aspects of yourself that were previously unknown or are purposefully stepping into a whole new era, these first 40 days of 2024 set the stage for a full rebirthing of you.

This year, we were inspired by the quote from Rumi,

“A new moon teaches gradualness

and deliberation and how one gives birth

to oneself slowly. Patience with small details

makes perfect a large work, like the universe.

What nine months of attention does for an embryo

forty early mornings will do

for your gradually growing wholeness.”


Rules for entry into the drawing to win:

  1. Commit to 40 days of practice with Yoga Life.

  2. Attend 30 in-person or live streamed virtual classes at Yoga Life between January 1 and February 9, 2024. These can be any classes on our weekly schedule.

  3. Daily, throughout the challenge, utilize the pre-recorded breath work, meditation, and chanting practices (around 5-10 minutes each and are FREE). We do recommend the breath work and/or chanting practices to be practiced early in the morning, when your mind and the world are still quiet. This will set the tone for your day and help you move forward with awareness. On the days you are unable to practice with us, definitely utilize these pre-recorded videos.

If you wish to join us, email support@yogalifemichigan.com stating “I’m in!” and we will send you your own class tracker, the calendar to follow along each day for these 40 days, and a “how to” video to help you prepare.


We encourage each of you to commit to 40 early mornings. To carve out a small amount of time and start your day with intention. Your entire year could benefit from these first 40 days and you using these practices to reflect and deepen your relationship with yourself.


Upon completion of the challenge, take a picture of your completed tracker and email to Support@YogaLifeMichigan.com by February 10th, 2024. All completed entries will enter the drawing. Drawing will take place February 11th, 2024. Winner will be notified via email and announced on Instagram February 11th, 2024.
