Peace

Whatever the day brings we do have the ability to approach it with a spirit of peace inside even in the most challenging situations.

At times this however is hard for me to do. All too often I become blown by the winds around me and out of sync within myself.

It is when I quiet my mind and tune into the harmony of my inner self that I find peace.

I can intentionally stop and take a few deep breaths and calm my mind and body. When I practice gently focusing on inhaling and exhaling, my body and mind instinctively relax. My pulse slows and steadies.

By noticing my breath, I relax into a state of peace and feel a sense of harmony, belonging and comfort. The chaos dissipates and the winds of my mind grow calm again.

I exist only in this present moment and peace prevails once more.

How might you make breath focus practice a part of your day?
