Let Them

In a collaborative group I’m a part of we discussed Gateway Habits. The prompts were what’s a positive gateway habit you have and what’s a negative gateway habit you want to exchange for a better one

The discussion end with what’s one that you cherish the most and without question mine is my daily breath work practice.

Over the past 108 days it’s been a roller coaster of how well I’ve done. I wanted all of them to be mind blowing and they weren’t. It’s no different than eating my favorite food, sometimes it’s just okay. I go back because I know it’s still good it just wasn’t that time.

This weekend I was at a retreat with 4 generations of my family. I slept closest to the water and woke up before everyone else. In the dark I could sit by the lake meditate and do my daily practice. One minute it was dark and before I knew it the sun was kissing my skin.

From the time I picked up my mother I knew it would be a challenge for me. I also knew I had the tools to make it through. The good part is I’ve been blessed with the ability and willingness to look at myself 1st and I work inside out.

I didn’t break away as much as I thought I would. As normal I was in my head a bit and not as much as I used to be AAAAND I was recalling positive messages. I could hear Mel Robbins telling me what I already knew and refused to do and that is to let people be who they are and let myself not concern myself with things I have no control over.

I can testify to many things. Two of the things I will die on a hill about are 1. Water has miraculous healing powers 2. Breath work should be taught as soon as a child starts mimicking. I realize that means more adults need to learn. Could you imagine the world if they did.

I pray as we go through our days we go through our days we give ourselves grace through the growth process.

Much Love and Many Blessings!

P.S. I could upload the picture 😿trust me when I say the environment was beautiful and peaceful
