Calming Breath For Simple Presence (Jan 2026)
by Larissa Link
We'll take 15 minutes to settle into your body and your breath. Notice how your body cares for you with each breath, how your lungs and heart continuously create a rhythm together to support you in each moment, one slow and steady breath at a time. A calming breath can be a simple as noticing your breath, but we'll also take some slow, intentional breaths together. "Perhaps the most important thing we bring to another person is the silence in us; not the sort of silence that is filled with unspoken criticism or hard withdrawal. The sort of silence that is a place of refuge, of rest, of acceptance of someone as they are. We are all hungry for this other silence. It is hard to find. In its presence we can remember something beyond the moment, a strength on which to build a life. Silence is a place of great power and healing." ~Rachel Naomi Remen
