It would seem that breathing would be a no-brainer since, thanks to the limbic or primitive brain, we do it automatically every second of every day usually without paying much thought to it. Unfortunately, when we don't breathe consciously, we end up missing out on a whole lot of good stuff. For one thing, we have a tendency to not use the full capacity of our lungs, when taking in air. Air is the energetic life force that supports our mind, body and Spirit, yet we don't take full advantage of the offering. It's sort of like hitting a home run, but then stopping at first or second base. What good is that? Yes, we might get a little exercise while we're running, but we certainly aren't making any points on the scoreboard. And breathing improperly is pretty much the same thing. While we do get some of the benefits, we are not receiving the whole shebang.
First off, when we don't receive enough air in our lungs, it effects all aspects of our Being. Our blood flow doesn't work to full capacity, which in turn effects the proficiency of all areas of our physical body. Our stress level rises effecting our mental body. And on the Spiritual level, it hinders us from listening to our own innate Inner Wisdom.
Luckily, if you weren't able to make this week's live class from The Inviting Change Series of telecourses taught by myself and my co-host extraordinaire Karen Hager of radio and Fog City Psychic Fame, there is still an opportunity to participate in the class! All of the classes in this series are being recorded so that you can listen to it at your own convenience.
In this class, Breathing in Life, we share stories, various meditations and breathing techniques, in order to get in touch with our True Spirit. Breathing properly helps to shift our perceptions and see things as they truly are as opposed to how our fears erroneously project them to be.
These telecourses are a wonderful way to get in touch with our Spirit without having to leave our homes! Time and distance are no barrier to energy and I am delighted to share any of the classes that are offered, whenever it is the best time for you take them. We are all connected by our intention, not our proximity to each other. So, whether you are being called to take these classes in the past, present or future, you are absolutely welcome into the space.

Sending many Blessings your way and thank you for reading and Namaste! (The Light in me recognizes the Light in you!)
