You are anchoring your mind to the breath, Letting go of all thoughts of the past and the future. Breathing fully into this moment. Breathing fully into your body. There is nothing before this breath. There is nothing after this breath. There is only this breath. There is only this breath. There is only this breath. There is only this breath.
