Our breath is the lock and the key to our emotional healing. A held breath in the face of fear locks that fear within us just as a full and deep breath is the key to releasing negative events from our past. Within our breath we have the ability to heal the scars of traumatic events. No matter how subtle or overwhelming, no matter how deep, or how much you depend upon or loved the other person involved. A basic function of our breath is the ability to breathe through and release any fear or negative belief that limits our participation in life. Releasing such traumas opens us up to relieve greater joy and deeper compassion into our lives. Living with a greater sense of freedom and joy boosts our immune system and our energy levels. We all have the ability to achieve great levels of clarity and wholeness. Such an ability quietly awaits our choosing in the depths of every breath.

Hi Edward..right on!!
Here in Italy new energy comes with the spring which is windy (breath in),sunny (spirit) and very fresh (waking up)!
Much love and blessings to you for your blog…
Wow—- this is the cornerstone of every meditation session, yoga class, therapy session, or classroom intervention I lead!! The first thing I want my students to know is how to rest their mind on the breath! It is the only autonomic system we can exhibit voluntary control over, which, when we do, effects all the others in such a positive and beautiful way!
It is funny how the power is hidden unless taught or told. Funny haw that is.
As a planet we have been stumbling in the dark. The shift is here for those who find it.
What kind of yoga do you teach?
