A short video just to aid in your practice.
and Breath of Fire!
designed to aid:
Expanding your lung capacity and activating the deepest regions of your lungs that aren't used for typical breathing.
I have a breathing practice in the morning and in the evening.
MORNING: to enliven/wake/enthuse me for the day
Strengthening your vital strength and nervous system
EVENING: relaxing and I sometimes use an 8 pound pillow on my belly, (I’ll slept with it all night!!) that really sends me deep into the kind of relaxation I need for a good nights’s sleep
uuuuhuuuuu
Increasing your resistance to stress
BIG ONE for me … and THOUGHTS
Do you have just too much thinking going on?
Common themes for sleep-time hours.
So I journal about an hour before my “bed time” and this releases a lot of emotions, maybe some anger BUT I have to say what I put down on paper, dissipates almost immediately.
Restoring balance to your sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
yes, I say. let the balance begin.
I’ve been traveling a lot and not much art has been created. Sometimes I sleep well, sometimes I walk in the middle of the night, which is great for my creative process.
I’ve written a couple books
I think you’ll enjoy.
One is a relaxation coloring book, the other is on Pranayama!!
I drew this on my iPad last night. She resonates my very personality
…in lotus
…with deep breathwork
Do you see yourself in her at all? If so, how?
with MUCH Love
I see you
I love you!
always more to come
I hope you’re sleeping well and taking very good care of yourself.
Want to see a certain video? request it! I’d love to hear from you.
