Today a yoga student joked that he was going to author a book called Yoga in 3-Minutes, While Holding Your Breath. Of course part of the joke is that The Practice will take the rest of our lives. No quick solutions. No problem needing a solution in fact. The irony is that, for all of our practice, the only thing it can ultimately reveal to us is that we are already & always have been whole. The other part of the joke is that our breath is literally the currency of our lives. Coming home to the breath is The Practice. Yet it can be so tempting to grasp after some fancy pose and make the breath jagged or hold it. Lets take the rest of our lives to practice allowing the breath, freeing the breath, befriending the breath. And something exquisite will be revealed: we are already & always have been whole.
