Just Deep Breaths...

I just exhaled as I began this entry. It has been a month, a month…I can’t believe that has been that long, but then I can. I have felt turned upside down by the events that have taken place this month. I got consumed by it all, understandably so. But I am slowly getting back to me, thanks to me & God. So much that all I can do is exhale, and truthfully breathing deeply is a step in the right direction for me. It's so deeply profound to me because over a month ago I was told I need to focus on my breathing, breathe deeply and slowly. Feel it as it enters and exits your body. Now the whole idea of meditating isn’t that easy for me to do…mind won’t stop thinking. But focusing on JUST my breathing is a lot easier for me. I didn’t know that deep breaths would have such a positive impact on me, but it is. It calms me so I feel less anxious or nervous. It helps me slow down, take my time for my own safety and peace. It makes me feel my humanity, my femininity, my freedom, and my enoughness.
