Before language.
Before names.
Before we learned to hold ourselves apart.
There was water.
It moved through the first bodies the way it still moves through us now.
Breathing without effort.
Listening without thought.
The elders knew this rhythm.
They watched the tides.
They followed rivers.
They learned when to move by how the water moved.
Somewhere we forgot.
We tightened.
We breathed as if time were chasing us.
But the body remembers what came first.
Each inhale is rain calling to old bones.
Each exhale a river returning memory to the sea.
When you breathe like water you breathe with your ancestors.
With those who drank from streams.
Who prayed with their hands in rivers.
Water does not argue with gravity.
It does not rush.
It's becoming.
It follows the pull that has always known the way home.
Let the breath move you.
The way water moved them.
Through listening.
Through patience.
Through trust.
You are not learning something new.
You are remembering something ancient.
The water has never forgotten you.
There is a memory in the body older than words.
Older than tension.
Older than the habit of holding on.
Water knows this memory.
It teaches us how to meet life without hardening.
How to stay in motion without losing ourselves.
How to trust what carries us even when we cannot see the way ahead.
Breath is the first river we ever knew.
Moving in.
Moving out.
Patient.
Faithful.
Unbroken.
When we let the breath move like water the body begins to unclench.
The nervous system remembers that softness does not collapse.
That yielding is a form of strength.
This is not about doing it right.
It's about remembering how to be held by something larger than effort or control.
Nothing to force.
Nothing to fix.
Water that has always lived within you.
When the body remembers water,
The breath softens before the mind does.
We were never meant to move through life braced,
Rigid,
Or holding everything alone.
Water reminds us of another way.
To meet instead of grip.
To listen instead of force.
To stay long enough to be shaped by what is true.
Breath becomes tide.
Inhale,
Arriving like rain.
Exhale,
Releasing like a river,
Finding its way back to the sea.
This remembering isn't something you learn,
It's something you allow.
A slow return to softness.
To trust.
To the intelligence that lives beneath effort.
Nothing to fix.
Nothing to master.
Moving through water.
Teaching the body how to be held again.
Www.
Mooji.
