TAKE A DEEP BREATH! April 3, 2009

Smile. You may not know it, but your life just changed.

Skeptical?

Take another deep breath. Now, deepen your expression.

Whether you are new to yoga, a dedicated practitioner, or just someone trying to sort out all of the hullabaloo (and not call it “yogart” in mixed company), a joyful practice can help you find things you didn’t know you needed – and explore gifts you didn’t know you had to offer.

Still skeptical? That’s cool. It doesn’t change the fact that somewhere between that first deep breath and this next one (Inhale….Exhale.) your brain chemistry changed!

And just think, you didn’t even have to step on a mat.

Namaste!

Myra,
Just thinking about your near constant smile makes me smile. Thanks for bringing a joyful moment into my morning with your blog. Now I need to try to fit in some yogurt. :)

Like the blog!! I just finished reading Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road.” I can use all the smiles I can get. Hope spring visits you soon!

Love,

Ben

You just made me flash clearly on why my stalker/targeter lands so hard on nice deep breaths. I thought he was just mocking sighs, but like smiles and upward glances he feels the need to subdue them. Got it. Thanks.

Good heavens, I am so sorry to hear you are dealing with a stalker/targeter. Yes, exactly what you said! I know how much it really sucks and hope you are able to be be in a physically safe place. I also hope that you soon have the time and clarity for three-fold healing. M
