Live Whole Health Episode #234: Take me to the river

Your breath moves through your body like the current on a river. Do you notice it? When our mind and body are busy, we often don’t notice the gentle rhythm of breathing and how our breath nourishes our body and mind.

In the heat of summer, we want to slow down, stay cool and relax. This 5-minute practice brings you beside a gentle river where you can pause, listen and explore the cool, refreshing energy of your breath. Listen for the full five minutes, or just a minute or two to get the benefit of pausing with the current of your breath.
