APPARENTLY I COULD HAVE
STAYED HOME 💎

I travelled to ashrams in India and A Course in Miracles communities in Europe and the United States.

Apparently, enlightenment was everywhere except where I was standing.

I did everything my mind told me might lead me to peace.

I crossed oceans, sat at the feet of great teachers and went looking for truth in several different time zones.

Very thorough.

When my mind finally ran out of ideas, I found myself more or less where I had started.

Anxious, afraid, and a bit jaded, still searching for peace.

Then Kevin popped up on my YouTube feed.

I tried it.

I was already walking, so I added his Ocean Breath.

It worked.

So I started taking the seated breathwork seriously.

End of story.

After travelling all over the world, I found true peace deep in my own chest.

For me, this is meditation.

Going deep, but without the drama or the effort of trying to silence the mind.

It is also a kind of yogic breathing.

For the past couple of years I have been practising Kevin Connolly's Reconnect Breathing. Each practice consists of three rounds. I repeat the whole practice three times in the morning and three times again later in the day, and finish each evening with slow Ocean Breathing before sleep.

It has become the foundation of my day.

I'm calmer.

I sleep deeply.

My body settles easily.

My mind is quieter.

None of that came from trying to become a different person in a different place.

It came from simply turning up to conscious breathing.

Sometimes the deepest practice is also the nearest.

SLEEP IS FUNDAMENTAL
TO EVERYTHING ELSE 💎

In sleep, your body self-repairs.

Your brain restores itself.

And your nervous system settles.

If sleep isn’t coming easily, try five or ten minutes of conscious breathing.

Draw a long, slow in-breath.

Then let the out-breath be even longer.

Keep going.

For me, Ocean Breath is the doorway into deep, restful sleep.

Never underestimate a good night’s sleep.

Everything else depends on it.

SO I SLEEP 💎

I've been doing evening #Ocean Breath just before sleep for about a #year now.

I look forward to getting into the #zone every #night.

For the past two nights, I've started my usual 30 to 50 minutes.

A few minutes later...

I fall into a #deep, #sound sleep.

A few months ago, I would have forced #myself to stay #awake and complete the round.

“I haven't finished my practice.”

Now, though, my body says, “Sleep.”

So I sleep.

The purpose was never to complete 30 to 50 minutes.

The purpose was to arrive at peace.

Perhaps some practices don't need to carry us all the way across a threshold.

Perhaps they only need to bring us to the #door.

Then life, knowing what is needed, quietly takes over.
