Making room for abundance

As we gather our inner strengths to meet the opportunities and challenges in 2015, let’s remember to EXHALE and Make Room for the next big breath.  Find a moment each day to stop what you are doing and focus on your breath.  Keeping your mouth closed and breathing only through your nose:
Start by emptying all the air out of your body by collapsing the chest and pulling your naval in, then slowly filling your abdomen with breath all the way up to your collar bones, then exhale.  Let’s call it: “balloon breath!”.  Repeat a few cycles. Smile at the end and notice the subtle changes that are already happening in your body.
A helpful internal question I’ve been using lately is “What is my motivation?”  And if my motivation is not about love, connection, joy, and following my bliss…I either let go of it on the spot, or I look to find a way to make it good.
To Find a way to make it good, here are some helpful “mantras” to ‘say’ to yourself:
“It’s working out, give it time.”
“What if it’s ok the way it is?”
“I am trusting that there is some wisdom in all this.”
“Thank you for this amazing life.”
