Sometimes we get flooded with thoughts, feelings, or sensations.
We get overwhelmed. Sometimes we are confused, undecided, uncentered and we have lost our clarity and sense of well being.
We feel that life is out of control. That we are out of control.
Sometimes life throws us surprises we feel that we are not prepared for. We are stressed and need to love ourselves back to balance and
Equanimity.
Our breath is a wonderful way back to our experience of
Peace and comfort inside our own skin.
Focusing on our breath listening to it, feeling it move through our bodies, allowing ourselves to relax into our own natural rhythm brings
Us home to our centered self. Attention on the breath allows us to witness our thoughts, feelings and sensations; as we slow ourselves down we have space to collect ourselves, our most evolved self is able to come forth and we can embrace ourselves, each other and our experience. Flooding leads to survival mode, defensive behavior
(fight or flight) and breathing with awareness leads to openness
And a return to love.
Rev. Supriya Hermenze
