I connect daily to my breath. I pause and presence with my breathing. My breath brings me life. My breath connects me with essence and feelings. My breath moves my energy. My breath creates aliveness. My breath accesses bottled up energy and tension in my body and opens the flow. My breath transforms fear into excitement. When we breathe shallow, we are often in fear.

Fear can drain your aliveness, contribute to hyper-vigilance, shallow breathing, hardened constricted musculature, stagnant decision-making, repeat problems, tiredness, and a loss of connection with your essence and the essence of others. Learning to diffuse fear with breath can restore your energy and creativity.

A Daily Breathing Program provides a key connection to awaken your intuition, power, vitality, radiance, life-force, and energy flow. You can breathe your way through fears. You can also breathe through blockages in order to discover which destructive beliefs are stifling your natural emerging essence. Energy comes from surrendering to the gift of breath (your creative life-flow). It is important to use your breathing yourself throughout the day.

With your breath you can connect with all feelings. You can learn to identify the underlying fear, stay present in your body, and express your feelings in a way that promotes insight and aliveness. With your breath, you can learn to stay connected to self, others, and the issue, breathe deeply and speak your truth.

Breathing exercises can be integrated into all parts of your day. Breathing exercises provide powerful instant doorways through which your essence may emerge. A very powerful and simple breathing technique taught at my workshops is the "Life-Stream Breath".
