Just breathe

The next time you wonder where all your time went, take a break and take a breath. We get so consumed with busyness and day to day activities and stressors, that we miss all the beauty that is right in front of us.
Focusing on the breath calms us and keeps us in the present moment. The next time you start to feel that things are swirling out of control....slow things down and BREATHE. After 2-3 breaths, your perspective and attitude should start to shift.
Your breath is the very best tool that you have for living each day to the fullest and avoiding that sense that somehow time has slipped away. Remember the quote from John Lennon: Life is what happens when we're busy making other plans. Make the decision to be aware and be an active participant in all that is in front of you....right now. You'll feel more connected and more alive as you stay in the present moment.
Yoga classes of mine this week (and really every week) will be focused on the breath....come and practice breathing and living a full life....full of joy and awareness.
