BREATHING SPACES
Co-Creating Well Being of Body, Mind, Heart, and Planet …..One Breath At A Time
Be A Breath of Life
Baha’i Prayer for Peace
Be generous in prosperity, and thankful in adversity.
Be fair in thy judgement, and guarded in thy speech.
Be a lamp unto those who walk in darkness, and a home to the stranger.
Be eyes to the blind, and a guiding light unto the feet of the erring.
Be a breath of life to the body of humankind,
a dew to the soil of the human heart,
and a fruit upon the tree of humility.
The shape of our life depends on how willing we are to create a masterpiece. As my life unfolds itself I sometimes wonder what shape it will take next….forgetting that it is in my hands as I take a breath, release it completely, and trust that I will be guided within the spaciousness that shows up with the next exhale.
Do you forget that the person standing next to you in the interminably long line is affected by the quality of your breath? In fact the person sitting at the edge of the Ganges mourning the loss of a loved one is also affected by your breath, as is the whale that breaches out of the depths of the ocean. The question is, will you be a catalyst for love and peace….or yet another addition to the anxiety and fear that strangles and contracts the life that we all have been given?
The choice is to be a breath of life, even amidst our own fears and longings. Your life and those dear to you, as well as the entire planet, need your breath of life. Since we all share the air would it not be a good practice to relax into the next exhale with all of the love you can possibly embody in one brief moment of time? There is the peace….
