Speaker:
whatever you're doing,
2
:
ghia: wherever you are
3
:
Take a long, slow exhale
and a gentle, easy inhale
4
:
Allow your body to soften
5
:
notice that place that accepts
and releases the breath
6
:
You could find it in your
lungs, your diaphragm,
7
:
your belly
8
:
Imagine trying to stop the breath.
9
:
How would it feel?
10
:
Stuck?
11
:
Tight?
12
:
Dark?
13
:
Scary?
14
:
Now notice how your breath feels when
you allow it to flow naturally, freely.
15
:
Do you feel a sense of
relief, ease, comfort?
16
:
Did you ever realize
every breath was a gift?
17
:
A gift that lets you taste
the salt of a potato chip,
18
:
feel the warmth of a jacket,
19
:
hear the laughter of someone you love,
20
:
see the glitter of stars.
21
:
A gift that you have received thousands
of times today without asking for it.
22
:
A gift that has been with you since
your very first moment of life.
23
:
Quiet, faithful, constant
24
:
A gift that comforts the lonely,
25
:
strengthens the tired, and
brings peace to the uncertain
26
:
Have you ever thought to
thank God for your breath?
27
:
Do it now.
28
:
Breathe in with gratitude.
29
:
Breathe out with gratitude
30
:
Allow each breath to roll
into your body like a wave.
31
:
Full, gentle, steady
32
:
Then let it leave like the
ocean returning to itself.
33
:
Nothing forced, nothing rushed
34
:
Let the rhythm flow naturally.
35
:
Fill your chest with gratitude.
36
:
Release with gratitude.
37
:
This is a rhythm as old as life itself,
38
:
A gentle reminder that
God is sustaining you,
39
:
walking with you,
40
:
holding both your joy and your sorrow
41
:
Practice this rhythm.
42
:
Breathe in this breath.
43
:
Receive this gift.
44
:
Feel it in your whole body.
45
:
Breathing in with gratitude,
46
:
releasing with gratitude
47
:
What does your gratitude breath feel like?
48
:
the breeze through an open window,
49
:
the warmth of a fire on your face
50
:
Let this gratitude become as
natural as the breath itself.
51
:
The breath,
52
:
a miracle,
53
:
A gift from God
