May you breathe.  And,  may you know that you are… ! I like to just feel the air I breathe into my body; feel my stomach fill up like a balloon; and slowly let the air release and pull my belly in and let all the air out of my lungs.  My shoulders relax and […]

As I sit at my computer, I notice that I hear the air conditioner blowing its cool air.  I hear the vacuum running.  I hear music on the television.  I hear the fountain trickling the water through its pump and over rock.  I see the palms dancing in the wind.  There is a light and […]
