Just breathe...

Breathing is something that is vital to life, yet not given much thought on a day-to-day basis. I realized awhile ago that I hold my breath when I am anxious, upset or when I didn't want to deal with certain emotions.

As I began my journey into yoga and holistic healing I learned that by holding my breath so much I was actually storing the pain in my DNA. Instead of checking out of difficult situations by holding my breath I was storing the pain for future use.

How many times has someone said something seemingly innocent and you found yourself overreacting or with hurt feelings? It could possibly be due to something that triggered an emotion that you suppressed.

Now when I know that I am facing difficult situations or people I make it a point to JUST BREATHE. So the next time someone gets on your nerves, smile and take a deep breath in and an equally deep breath out!

Blog therapy

I've been thinking of becoming a blogger for a very long time. I struggled between thoughts of “you should keep your random thoughts to yourself" and "no one cares what you have to say".

Then it hit me, the best way for me to manifest and to live fully is to share the happiness, sadness and whatever is going on because there may be someone out there that "feels me"... and for those that aren't interested in my random musings they don't have to read, it's as easy as that :-)

So here begins my life of online blog therapy. My main purpose in life is the pursuit of total bliss, happiness and unconditional love.
