Take a Breath

There are times when we can feel disconnected from the World,… take a breath and reconnect.


There are days when I feel like my connection to the universe is non-existent. It’s usually because I’m involved to deeply with my ego and things are not going the way I want them to go, or I feel discontent or uncomfortable. The truth is, the universe is always there for me, always there for us! We know that we create our experience with our thoughts, and this is just another way we need to make a conscious decision about how we want to experience life. It is up to us to do the work of making the connection, because nobody can do it for us, though sometimes the universe may send us wake-up calls.


You can think of it as taking a deep breath of fresh air . We are always breathing and the air is always around us, surrounding us, moving through us. But we may need to step outside of where we are in the moment—physically, mentally, or emotionally—and make the conscious choice to take a deep breath in order to feel the air coming in and going out. Whether this means walking outside physically or merely shifting our thoughts, it is only our perception that changes; the air remains the same. Right?


It is just as easy to reconnect with the universe. Using the same technique as a breath of fresh air, a deep breath can bring us back to our center. As we inhale, we fill our bodies with the oxygen needed to replenish our most basic physical needs, allowing the life force to circulate within us. Exhaling, we release the stagnant, the used, the potentially toxic air, removing any blocks that may keep us from going deeper into the stillness that lies at our center where we connect to the universe. Feeling closed off does not need to be a negative experience. When we become conscious of it, we can think of the wholeness of a closed circuit, which allows electricity to connect and flow properly. Our bodies work the same way, and when we make that connection in our minds, it can help bring us back to the connection we seek.
