Stay on target
Anything that brings us to a place of concentration is an aid to the practice.
Remembrance of the breath
All day, every day, we breathe in, we breathe out. How often do we notice the breath?
You take my breath away
We cultivate the deepest knowledge in the simplest things.
Breathless
We trust our constant companion to buoy us up. But friendship is a two way street—we must cultivate it.
Breathe out, Breathe in
The most mundane of activities, with the potential for the most profound changes.
The true meaning of vinyasa
The map of our consciousness is measured in breaths.
Don’t forget your ventolin
The breath is so fundamental, it can calm us or disturb us or deplete us or energize us. We want to learn to use it skillfully.
The trick is to keep breathing
The steadiness of the breath reflects the steadiness of the mind. As above, so below.
Stand your ground
We can be more friendly, more compassionate, more joyful and more spacious when we are grounded.
