Breath is my connection to Spirit.
In The Happiness Trap Pocketbook,
authors Bev Aisbett and Dr. Russ Harris share, “Mindful breathing ...
[is] an anchor, to hold you steady in the midst of an emotional storm.”
Throughout the day I notice the rate of my breathing—rapidly when I
exercise, or slow and deliberate when I am calm. When I close my eyes and breathe deeply and deliberately, I quiet my
mind. I become more aware of my thoughts and my ability to direct them. I focus on attitudes and ideas that foster positive outcomes. As I
inhale and exhale, I consider the blessings in my life and feel the
richness of absolute gratitude. Steadied by a sense of oneness with
Spirit, I breathe easily and gratefully.
When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.”—John 20:22
