Renew Your Friendship - With Your Breath!

How many times have we gotten an e-mail or voicemail from an old friend? Sometimes, we forget to call back. We feel bad. Time passes and we keep forgetting to get back to our old friend. And then, we reconnect - and it's like a day never passed since you spoke to her. She's still the same - in your life, part of your heart.

I think this is similar to the relationship we have with our breath. Sometimes, we don't hear it. We are too busy or stressed to feel the sensations of our breath. We forget to relax and breathe deeply. But then, like we're sitting down to answer an old voice mail, we tune in, we dial her up, and just like our dear old friend, our Breath is there for us. It sustains us from the moment of our birth to the moment of our death.

Sit down. Slow down. Call your friend. Send her an e-mail. Dial in and renew your relationship - with your BREATH!
