CONSCIOUS BREATHING
You are LIFE. You come to know that you are life only when you are aware of your breath. Many a times we go through the busyness of our human situations without giving another thought to our breath. But we all know that we are now here only because of the breath, if the breath is taken away then we do not exist on the Planet anymore.
All religious, spiritual, meditative, and therapeutic practices talk about the breath as the way to health, well being, self-discovery, and self-transformation.
Placing one's awareness on the breath is a powerful way to connect with our body, with our inner world. The ego-mind is constantly busy, keeping us rooted either in the past negative happenings or in the worry about the future. Placing awareness on the breath is the only way to be released from this sickness of the mind.
One conscious breath can overpower the thoughts and stop them.
