"BREATHE" - Word of the Day
A reminder to simply breathe was so much so supportive today in a variety of ways. Unexpectedly so I seemed to have a lot of deep seated emotions arise within me today. "Breathe" was eactly the word I needed to support me with my Living today. The simple reminder to "Breathe" was assisting in not getting too caught up in a whirlwind of drama for no good reason....the bait of a debate when it's a circle jerk kind of thing.
Though i did notice a peculilar thing.....
When I am beginning to get worked up about something....it's like i play with it....I toy with the point....kind of like I am wrestling with whether or not I will give in to the temptation of the energy I am holding onto in breath.
I would go into a deep hold...and maybe even start flexing...it's like I would be not quite letting go here with breath....but taking a pause to see what I want to do with this energy and emotion that's emerged within myself. I found this happen a lot today.
It was kind of interesting also because I ended up playing around with my breathing quite a bit today and played with the holds and releases on my breath...
I did notice that at times I got quite into my breathing in playing with different holds in both my posture and my breathing.
Also i think the day was somewhat in-heightened from the perspective that I didn't have any nicotine in my system today...and it often acts as like a soother for me.
So it was cool to play with the word "Breathe".
I did notice an interesting point though with the subtleness of Breath....meaning the ease and flow of breathing can be a very fluid effofrtless thing. That was definitely not what i was doing when I was going into moments of flexing and holding my breath. These moments kind of showed me how close I was on the brink of kind of going a bit bonkers into a reaction. I think the playing with breath was kind of a fun way to dramatize a moment that could have gotten a bit away from me in terms of me getting swept up in a moment of reaction
An interesting point here - the "how" of "how we breathe" definitely influences our well being in a positive way or a negative way. As the day went on i kind of recognized that I my day was quite a challenging day in terms of facing a number of deep seated emotions that had been suppressed in the background unconsciousness of myself.
I didn't really consider here either that I actually processed through more points within myself today than I do on average as a result of being way tuned into the breath of life.
It's interesting because in the experience of myself in many moments of my day - I didn't like what I was seeing...I didn't like what was coming up...I had some old dust to settle that was long over due in terms of becoming settled.
I find it incredibly fascinating how a single word that is given a purpose and direction by ourselves can in fact have such a substantial impact in a single day. I've been playing around with my daily "living word" for quite a bit of time now...and it really is true that every day is indeed a lifetime.
