The Breath of Life

The breath is our first autonomous act in our first precious moments on earth. Before birth there is a oneness where the concept of opposites does not exist. With our first breath we are confronted with the life defining function of breathing in life giving oxygen and breathing out the toxic waste of carbon dioxide.  Forever destined to be the opposite of each other. Our waste then goes on to give life to plant kingdom and vice versa and the delicate balance of nature continues.
For many, this first breath is taken in shock and pain, the harsh air burning  delicate throats and lungs and immediate cord clamping cutting off the flow of oxygen and nutrient rich cord blood.  This shocking memory sits in every cell and causes fear to accompany our thoughts about the breath.  In response we choose not to breathe deeply, not to take in this full life giving and purifying substance.  We resist, we hold back, we breathe shallowly not willing to return to those sensations.
Breathing consciously and deeply is one of the most therapeutic, healing acts we can do.  Practice breathing deep into your high chest and low into your belly and see what happens!
When you are angry - BREATHE
When you are sad - BREATHE
When you are excited - BREATHE
When you are afraid - BREATHE
When you are ill - BREATHE
When you don't know what to do - BREATHE

Are your the daughter of Virginia and Tom Thorsen from Salt Lake City, whom I knew well?

Hi Dee,

Sorry, I am not the daughter of Virginia & Tom as I was born and bred in Melbourne, Australia. My great grandfather came out from Norway as did many Norwegians end up in the US. I hope you enjoyed the post! Regards Lynne
