One way of cultivating wisdom, health and longevity as we age is by becoming more aware and in tune with our breathing bodies. As we age our blood-oxygen concentrations decrease, time sharpens, and we are inevitably drawn to the big questions; Who am I? What happens when I die? What will be my legacy on this earth?
How would your life change if you took time every day to dive into that vast ocean of the self, with a little more awareness, and instead of hanging on to your breath, you simply let it go? After all, we really don’t want to hold our breath, so much as hold it sacred.
