The sun sets on another day…
I’m looking at a clear blue sky where a flock of birds flew by and were covered in the oranges and reds passing by us all. As I watch, I can do nothing but be amazed at the beauty that nature gives us. The trees behind me are lit up by the sun and slowly change colors in the setting sky, and as twilight comes on, I felt the grayness upon me.
So sometimes, you just have to take a deep breath.
Actually, doctors tell you that you should take deep breaths about 10 minutes a day, maybe even more. Some people think deep breaths are a sign of frustration or depression. And I think deep breaths are something that we should just pay attention to, and as we take in and release, we could feel everything that is around us.
You can use a deep breath to feel better, or you can use a deep breath to express yourself. For the most part, that deep breath reflects who you are.
Over the last several years, I have found that sustained deep breathing each day makes me feel better. It may not make sense, but it’s very true. Not only that, but it gives me pause and lets me let loose of all of the stressors that I am currently holding.
You should try it.
Breathe in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, then breathe out 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. As you do this 5 times, you’ll find that your focus will improve and you may see some serious things that mean something. Repeat it, often and with mindful meaning!
What do you think, do you think that deep breaths help, or are deep breaths something that you avoid or miss completely?
So as the sun sets on another day, I’m thinking about how to breathe deeply and believe in the world that I’m in. I hope you believe in it too. And somewhere along the way, I hope that you find peace and maybe a little meditation in those deep breaths.
Don’t stop believing and don’t stop breathing. And along the way, maybe you can find peace no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and breathe deep….
