Our Flowing Breath- Poem #3 Prompt #3 from Ingrid Exner

Our breath flows like a wave-

a tsunami in some-

who breath just a bit too deeply!

Inhaling air through every orifice-even the hair!

 

I practise breathwork on a rock in Georgian Bay.

I breathe in deeply-very deeply!

And, I do an extended release-releasing all the air, breath and everything I no longer need.

Woosh!!!

Breathing can be good…deep breathing can be good but it can also be bad.

“Inhale, exhale and release.” It seems simple enough.

It’s another deep exhale of surrender.

Then, there are the shallow breathers-surface breathers.

Sometimes, I hold my breathe…when I am afraid or even sad.

I then remind myself, “Ing, it is time to let it all go-including the breath!”

Better breathwork will make me stronger-in many ways!

Beautiful, big breath-

It’s in us to give!

Alles gut!

All things breathe and flow and like rivers even giggle and gurgle with glee!

Time to return to the sparkling water of Georgian Bay and my meditation rock.
