Yesterday, we learned from Jon Kabat-Zinn that breathing is “the ultimate gift of spirit.”
Today, let’s look at how Harvard-trained MD Andrew Weil explains the same idea in Breathing: The Master Key to Self Healing:
“[B]reath is the animated, nonphysical aspect of your being. So that when you look in the direction of breath, when you focus your attention on your breath, you are really looking at your spiritual self.”
That statement is why Dr. Weil also says that, “if you do nothing other than pay attention to your breath today, for a few seconds more than you did yesterday, you have increased your spiritual awareness. You have made spiritual progress.”
Enjoy focusing on your breath to make some spiritual progress today 🙏
