You’re almost there.

Where? You might ask.

Well, I’m really not sure.

But I’m sure of one thing.

You’re almost ready to take your next breath.

If you pay attention you can feel it coming on.

You can feel the sweet cold air flowing through your nose and into your lungs, and then the ever so gentle lowering of your ribcage as you exhale.

I can almost feel it with you.

What a beautiful sensation.

How lucky you are to have made it to your next breath

Lucky?

Well, what would have been the other option?

The seemingly simple act of you breathing in and exhaling out is what’s allowing you to experience life. And although each breath should be appreciated and even celebrated, they’re almost all taken for granted.

So why not stop for a moment and just appreciate the next one coming along?

Here, I’ll do it with you.

How did that feel?

Now if you can find a few brief moments during your day to appreciate your breath you’ll find that it’s almost like hitting pause on your day. You can slow down whatever it is that you’re doing just by focusing on your breathing. Another added benefit is that you’ll also experience a sense of calm and centering. This can be especially helpful if you’re experiencing a stressful situation or emotional tumult because with every breath you’ll experience a passing moment, and whatever it is you’re going through will eventually end, and you’ll know that you’re almost there.
