Any of you finding that you are forgetting to breathe because of stress and uncertainty,
I know I am.
So let's all of us inhale like we mean it.
And exhale.
One more time,
A huge cleansing breath in.
Let it go.
Welcome to a hit of hope.
Do your days ever feel like years?
Is your spirit aching and so very tired?
Are your shoulders as tight as a rubber band stretched as taut as it will go?
Or maybe your shoulders are always up,
Crowding your ears.
Inhale please.
And exhale.
Inhale and feel the places you are connected,
Grounded.
Inhale and feel the release of all you have been trying to hold in.
Maybe there are some emotions here bubbling right below the surface.
That's okay.
Let them be.
Let them bubble.
If the emotions need it,
Let them rise and wash over you.
I'll be here with you as you face those emotions.
Inhale.
Dear one,
Exhale.
Exhale.
Exhale.
You have your burdens.
You have your cares.
You have your worries.
Maybe you are weary.
Inhale.
Exhale.
You have wounds.
You have hurts that are having a hard time healing.
You have fears that won't subside.
You might even have a secret stash of shame.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Let's do that again.
Inhale.
Because you also have your breath.
Exhale.
You also have this body of yours.
This spirit.
And maybe it's easy to tear into your body or spirit with sharp teeth that have been honed to tear.
But please.
Please inhale.
Please exhale.
Let this be a safe space.
A container that can hold whatever it is that needs to be held.
The fear.
The pain.
The sadness.
The anger.
Inhale.
This is a space that can hold it.
Exhale.
Let there be light.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Let there be peace.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Namaste.
