Tired From The Daily Grind? Take A Breather!


Hello, my beautiful friends!

Feeling tired, from running the race? From trying to get ahead? From the competition of it all? This might be a good time, for a pit stop. A breather. Actually...literally...a breather...making time, to be still for a few minutes, or longer (call me), and let your body breathe, the way it wants to breathe, when it is relaxed. Now is the perfect time, and you are ready for this. Read on.  

Making time (3 to 4 minutes, a few times a day), for deep breathing and being still, will do more than give you a break from the race. It will get oxygen to parts of your body that may not have been getting their fair share, like your brain and internal organs. This, in turn, changes the types of hormones, your body is producing, and you begin to move from good-old "fight or flight" mode, to "accept and adapt" mode. 

I could go on and on, but the proof is in the pudding. You will have to see for yourself. It is very easy. Requires no special equipment. Is free. And you have all the skills, need for this wonder cure. The biggest part is making that free time. This is a decision, and in many ways, the decision actually begins to create some of the desired body changes. Cool, yes? 

So, here is what you do, once you have created the 3 to 4 minute break. If you are sitting in a chair, have both feet on the ground, hands in your lap, shoulders relaxed, back straight (but not ram-rod straight), and close your eyes (not yet...there are further instructions). If you are sitting on the ground,  you already have your feet on the ground. Simply follow the rest. If you are lying on the ground...well, that's pretty relaxed, isn't it?

When you are comfy, let all of your breath out, and then take a deep breath, in through your nose...hold the breath, for about the same amount of time...and then exhale, slowly out of your mouth (so that the breath out is longer than the breath in)...at the end of the out-breath, pause...and repeat it all again. 

Try a couple of these, right now. I'll wait. I'm very patient...............


Did you do a couple of those? Good. Feels good, yeah? Now...Do this, for 3 to 4 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day, and watch what happens. Most of my clients report feeling significantly relaxed, and less stressful, after just the first few times. It is so simple and so powerful...and you are already an expert at it. 

Here's the thing. This is the beginning. This can help you to relax, and this means clearer thinking. All of this can lead to you, making decisions, more often, from what excites you, from your joy. This can lead to you, living less from the need to get ahead, and more from the desire to love what you have created, so far. This can lead to greater creativity, greater abundance, greater freedom...you get the idea. 

And all from taking a breather...from making time to be still, and take deep breaths. Amazing! 

You can do this. It only takes that first awareness, that you are ready for a break, and then...choosing to give yourself that break. Once you made that step...well, you have the instructions and the skill. Make it happen. And should there come a time, when you want to explore this more, contact me. All the information is below. 

Now is a really great time, for you to begin remembering why you are so great, and you really are great. You are a whole lot of "Amazing", and you can experience as much of that, as you want. It is all up to you, and as you can see, it is simple. It can also be easy. Let it be easy. Be easy with yourself. Celebrate yourself. A life of celebration is yours, and you deserve it. 


With LOVE, 

Patrick
