The Calming BreathBody, mind and breath. All lines connect. |
|
| 1. Become aware of your breathing
just
noticing the air coming and going
gently in and out
in its
own rhythm. 2. With each in-breath allow your breath to flow inward and downward down into your lungs just as deep as is comfortable. 3. And you will begin to notice your breathing begins to slow and deepen ever so naturally it slows and deepens as you get into a deep easy rhythm 4. You may even notice
your abdomen moves gently
forward
and back
with each breath. |
|
| 5. Now hold your in-breath
for two
or three seconds
a perfect time
knowing life-giving oxygen
passing
so naturally into your blood-stream
will go on to benefit
all
areas of body and brain.
6. And breathe out slowly feeling your abdomen settle back your chest wall relax comfortably. 7. After just minutes
breathing in this rhythm
you'll notice
a new sense of inner calm
and outer peace in your world. |
