Day 2, Before Bed - CI Fitness, Beginning with Grace

Session overview: You do not have to be stronger, more disciplined, or completely ready before you begin caring for yourself. This first weekly bedtime session welcomes small beginnings and returns to the familiar prayer, relaxation, palm reminder, and body-as-temple reflection. It's added encouragement invites one manageable act of care tomorrow, whether that means suitable movement, gratitude, or needed rest. There is no performance to prove tonight.

How to use this episode: Replay this complete session before bed on Nights 2–7. Pair it with Morning Week 1: Beginning with Grace on Days 1–7. This is a reusable episode in the 30-day journey; you do not need a separate recording for each day.

Reflection to carry with you: What is one small act of care that fits the body and circumstances you have today?
