Breathing through Loss and Grief

Each breath we take is an opportunity to be fully with an experience, and then to let it go.

The Pandemic has been, and still is, a period of loss: of our lives as they were, illness and the loss of friends and family, and of the comfort of our community. It ushered in a profound insecurity and a tendency to construct and cling to a paradigm to try to explain this new world. The mind aims to understand and explain; with patience our breath helps us unravel the distortions, and land in our truth. Our breath reminds us to “Stay” and feel what is; it also teaches us to “Release” when we are ready.
