Taking a deep breath


Taking a deep breath every now and then allows us to focus on what is important,
and the task at hand. Many times we forget this simplistic measure and panic,
which leads to rash and sometime illogical decisions. For thousands of centuries
wise men and monks have taught us that by breathing in through the nose and
exhaling through the mouth, can not only reduce our anxiety but also detoxify
our bodies from harmful viruses and energies.


By bottling up our emotions and stress, we block our receptors,
thus leaving us unchanging and stagnate. We move through our daily lives at the
speed of light, never taking even a single moment for ourselves. We are the
judge, jury, and executioner of our own well being.



To many times we bog ourselves down with stress when we don't have to. Worrying
about how the bills are going to get paid, how dinner is going to be placed on
the table, what happens if I or one of the kids get sick, work. Is worrying
about that upcoming bill going to get it paid any quicker? Is worrying about it
going to make money appear to pay it off? Is wondering how your going to buy
clothes for the kids going to put new shirts on their backs, and shoes on their
feet? NO! All stress does is speeds up the already hanging sword of Damocles,
causing it to swing lower and lower.


Are they legitimate fears and worries, of course. But why stress
yourself out? All this does it causes sickness, and tires you out, making you
more bitter, and angery. This can and usually crosses over into the workplace,
and sometimes even into our romantic lives. It is said that we hurt the ones we
love most, and this is so true when fighting over something as stupid as money,
or bills.


BREATH. Close your eyes and try to forget about the stresses of
our day to day. Breath in through the nose and allow your whole body to expand
with this life giving air. Allow yourself to loosen up and feel the clean
positive energies flow into you. Now exhale through the mouth, and visualize
yourself blowing away all of the pinned up anger, frustration, and stress.

I sometimes find it easy to 'blow up a balloon' allowing your negative air to
inflate it. When you are ready just pop it and watch all of your fears, stress,
and anxiety disappear.


Taking at least 2-3 minutes a day to do this, be it in the
shower, at a red light, in an elevator, take time to do this for yourself and
everyone around you. You will not only start feeling better, you will notice a
new out look on life. And if you ever need some one to talk to about these
things, please call me at the below number. I can help you weed through these
thing, and read the cards to see what is coming down the pipeline.
