"Breath of Heaven & Downward Dog"

 
Breathe and Receive Balance

Open your heart and breathe in life. The very breath we take, is in essence God present with us.  And every choice we make, we can choose happiness (with His Love), or we can choose harm (against oneself or others). Within each choice of happiness we can choose a little piece of Heaven...
 Surrender, make a conscious choice, open heart, choose Love, and allow God's light to fill you.

All of us live our journey seeking Truth. Within truth is balance. Seeking and choosing balance requires coordination of input from multiple sensory systems. It requires mind, spirit, and body. Our mind claims wisdom, our spirit desires faith, and our body is empowered through strength and nutrition.

In the past I was limiting in my truth and balance. I had narrowed my fitness performance to mainly endurance running. When the practice of yoga first arrived in my life I was displeased with the idea of such a drastic change in my fitness performance. It turns out that presumption was totally miscalculated! Yoga has now become a key component in my life practice of "balance." 

Above, I share with you a yoga pose called "Downward Dog." The pose is a place of relaxation and balance. It requires you to be strongly grounded and lifted simultaneously. Similar to our required relationship with God. A foundation with God will bring forth life and growth; and all else is sinking sand.

May you seek and embrace BALANCE! Breathe in Life, Love, and Happiness. Peace be with YOU!

  1. Celina,
    Wow, you are such an gifted writer. This is exactly the message I required hearing today!I love the analogy about Downward Facing Dog; being both grounded & lifted simultaneously. I see it too as being stead fast & committed to our highest good & taking action while simultaneously relaxing into our faith of already having our desired outcomes & dreams fulfilled.
    I acknowledge you Celina, for creating this blog and being an inspiration to me and others reading this.
    God bless you. Thank you & Namaste'!
