Breath is the Key to Life, Movement, and Rhythm

Breath is the key to life, movement, and rhythm.

"Imagine, if you will, a situation where all is in harmony, complete in its rhythm. ..emptying to fill, filling then emptying in an ongoing ever-flowing wholeness. Life-giving fluid enters the system, rich in nourishment, swirling, laden with life energy….A great whoosh connects what is outside, air of the world, with the inside of me…connects the inside of me with myself. Every cell receives its portion of food, healthy and at one with the environment…ready to pour out what is not needed, ready to release the waste, to open a space to make room to expand for new food. Emptying and filling, the circle is complete and the cycle continues. There is no goal to be reached and no targeted task. It is sufficient to BE, simple and whole, connected within, in unity with the universe.

You might ask, 'How can I be in this wondrous place of perfect unity? How can I partake of this wholeness?' Simply by participating in the primal pattern of BREATH."
