“Let the breath lead the way.” –Sharon Salzberg

Prayer

Breath of life,

Our tradition teaches that we are literally in-spired by the donation of your breath, as you breathed into us and we became living creatures before you. Help us appreciate the deeper significance of our breath today. And when times of stress especially seek to steal our breath away, may we practice returning with confidence to this great gift you have given. May the anchor of our breath give us resilience in a world in need of peace. Amen.

Call to Action

Set aside ten minutes today to learn a new practice in meditative breathing or recommit to a practice already known. Remember to let the breath lead the way.
