The Secret Saving Grace

The secret isn't hidden,
esoteric, or opaque.
Right here, in all my
incompletion; right now,
with self doubts nipping
at my shins like crazed
chihuahuas, I can draw
a breath  and let love in.

The simple act of breathing
changes everything.
I shift from closed
to open the moment
I let breath connect
me with my quiet depths.

The fact that love is
freely available,
just waiting to flow in, 
is the secret saving grace
that takes me from 
dullness to vibrancy,
from resistance to
willingness and ease.

What a lovely reminder that we can shift our own mood and energy when we become aware of our deeper breath. Conscious breathing becomes the portal to ease and release from resistance and anxiety. It is a simple practice with much to gain.

A secret saving grace to helps us navigate the highs and lows of life.
