Number one HABIT
Breathing & praying are LIFE to me and my most important & #1 habit would be PRAYER while being aware of my breath at the same time ! ( Okay so that might technically be two … but I will put them together as one & recommend you do as WELL. )
Without breath we are not alive physically ~ but HOW ALIVE we feel depends on our breath and there is so much we need to learn & unlearn .
The book Breath by James Nestor & the teachings of Patrick McKeown have been SO beneficial to me that I recommend them to all .
For example : DID YOU KNOW that the Native American Grandmas & Moms would check the infants to make sure their mouths were closed when sleeping & close them if they were not?
THERE ARE MANY LOST REMEDIES that are coming back as science catches up with the Bible ( See Gen 2:7)
FOR NOW and /or & until you check them out~~` just laugh MORE and or go for a daily walk TO BREATH MORE & listen to nature talk which can be a way of how Creator speaks to us I have found ~ we all sleep better when we walk & talk daily with our Creator In Creation !
The hospital is full of shallow breathers ~ may we not become one of them I pray.
(often disease is caused because of stress and how one deals or does not deal with stress )
To be spiritually alive is to be connected thru prayer with our Creator about all of life including our stresses.
Our Father in Heaven who gives us breath & life both physical & spiritual will give us answers if we listen because He cares! 1 Peter 5:7 Let GOD have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.
My prayer is that we all will BREATH WELL & PRAY continually TO BE WHOLE ~ so that our body, soul & spirit can soar above all the earthly pressures & trials and we can bring heaven to earth ~ with JOY , PEACE & right~living ONE LAUGH & PRAYER AT A TIME ~ more easily able to share kindness & love to all .
MAY WE FULLY ENJOY THIS PRECIOUS GIFT OF LIFE WE ARE GIVEN DAILY !
May our hearts be FULL OF WONDER THIS WEEK LIKE A CHILD ~ laughing & learning & perhaps even skipping again and /or humming or singing ( some of the greatest health & stress relievers and NO COST even ~ money back guaranteed ! )
When is the last time you skipped or hummed ? Get a friend or a neighbor to join you & you’ll both be giggling & feeling younger together ~ PERHAPS EVEN START A CLUB ? !
LET’S BE FULLY ALIVE ~~ like a child yet not childish ~ knowing we are FULLY KNOWN & FULLY LOVED
FOR WE ARE MADE BY LOVE TO GIVE & RECEIVE LOVE ~
AS A MOTHER & GRANMA of many that is my truth & I am sticking with it ~ and IT WORKS FOR ME even in the most stressful situations including deathbeds & traumatic events. BREATHING & PRAYING ARE VITAL ! I have buried two sons & a marriage after 33 years among other tragedies.
PRAYER works for me with no bad side effects ~ What works for you ?
WHAT IS YOUR ONE HABIT that makes everything else work better for your day & life ?
FOR ME IT IS BEING AWARE OF MY BREATH AS I PRAY WITH A GRATEFUL HEART TO MY GOD & OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN NO MATTER WHAT I have learned to Trust & just keep breathing while talking to & listening for HEAVEN’S voice & reading the Bible as if it was a love letter daily just for me & you ~which it is !
I AM PRAYING FOR YOU NOW TO TAKE A LONG SLOW STEADY BREATH LIFTING UP YOUR HANDS TO RELEASE ALL THE TENSION WITH A THANK YOU LOOKING UP IN YOUR MINDS EYE & A LISTENING HEART TO GOD FOR THAT BREATH ~ MAY YOU HEAR THE VOICE OF HEAVEN & RECEIVE THE LOVE THAT IS BEING WHISPERED TO YOU EVEN NOW AS I WRITE THIS ….
AHHH…. and HUG YOURSELF 3 times LONG & STRONG ~ ending with a little tickle & a neck rub? !!
May you have a blessed day & night more than usual seeing all the WONDER ~ with
SWEET HEALING DREAMS TO YOU & me too
& ALL ~~
AND MAY WE ALL WAKE RESTED & REFRESHED & EXCITED TO LIVE & SHARE JOY WITH SOMEONE ALONG WITH HEAVENLY PEACE ….
NO MATTER WHAT ~~
lovingly

.Genesis 2:7 says ~
then the LORD God formed [that is, created the body of] man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being [an individual complete in body and spirit]
THE NOSE IS FOR BREATHING ~ PRAYER IS FOR LIFE !
