The Autumn Air

Autumn is a great time to take in crisp air. Nature is busy settling in and our awareness of these changes brings an awareness of the environment we interact with. Most immediately, we interact with  air.
 The breath will strengthen any activity of any degree. Calmness will be supported, sports or athletics supported, creativity supported, work supported, happiness supported, and tough and stressful times will be supported. The breath is the tool for any endeavor in life. Even putting on your socks. Wherever you go today, on your way there or at the destination, whatever it is -the bank, surgery, school, work, gym, store, outside, inside, inward, or into a creative reality- you will enrich this experience with breath. There is nothing more important than breathing, and the only times you shouldn't breathe is when underwater or in a toxic gas cloud, which should lead to breath anyway by getting to breathable air! We are organisms tied to Nature, biologically, psychologically, and deeper. We are organisms that are Nature. Being a part of the process instead of detracted (as is shallow unaware breath) is a key to experiences. After all, life is not people, places, or things. Life is experiences. Life is breath.

"It is better to have your head in the clouds, and know where you are... than to breathe the clearer atmosphere below them, and think that you are in paradise."
-Henry David Thoreau

There are many ways to practice breathing. You will only find them by searching.
