Breath of Life: A 45-Minute Journey to Your Spiritual Self
Your breath is a symbol for your life. It is a symbol not just of your life, in the sense of your physical body breathing and being alive. It also represents your life energy or life force, which is why breath has universally been a symbol for spirit or chi or prana.
Ever feel like you’re just going through the motions, not really noticing your breath? In this episode of 'Happy Mind: Meditations from the Ancient World to Modernity', host Serena takes you on a 45-minute guided meditation that will change how you think about breathing. Drawing from ancient Chinese and Indian wisdom, Serena explains how your breath isn't just a physical necessity but a gateway to your higher self.
Imagine your breath as a bridge connecting you to another plane of existence, where your life force, or 'qi' and 'prana', resides. This meditation isn't just about breathing; it's about appreciating each inhale and exhale as a profound act of life. By focusing on gratitude for your breath, you'll find a deeper connection to your spiritual self. Tune in and let Serena guide you to unlock the transformative power of your breath.
