BREATHE – DEEPLY – ALL THE TIME

If one looks at the purest origins of the word “spirit” (spiritus in Latin), it simply means “breath.”  So, really – the name of my company, Spirit Inspired Life, could theoretically be called Breath Inspired Life.  I’ve found in my own life that when I become busy, or anxious, or nervous, or angry, I hold my breath. Even when I go about the course of my usual day, when I don’t feel particularly busy, or anxious, or nervous, or angry – I still find that I’m sometimes not breathing fully and deeply.

And when I do actually breathe fully and deeply – consciously – my world literally changes.  I find that I am more calm, that I think more clearly – and I have even found that the more consistently I breath deeply & fully, the more new & wonderful things come into my life. Breath IS life.  It sustains us.  All we have to do, is get as much of it as we possibly can.  And that’s easy, because it’s free!

Furthermore, I personally believe that because breath is life, the amount of success in anything we do is proportionate to the amount of breath we bring into our bodies.  In other words, if we only breathe deeply & fully 70% the time, then anything we do will only be 70% of what it could have been.

I challenge you to observe yourself in this way over the next few days.  Find the moments when you’re automatically holding your breath.  Find the moments when your breathing is shallow.  Then BREATHE. 

When you BREATHE deeply and consistently, transformation will take place.

Namaste,

Roger
