10 Ways to Manifest Your Desires

I have faith. I trust the Universe is always working in our favor if we allow it to. When I just let go of any expectations, take time to feel, trust the process then the magic starts to happen.
It’s about feeling everything and forcing nothing. Allow things to unfold and happen organically. If you still feel skeptical, then I challenge you to implement the following 10 Ways for the next 30 days to see the true power of manifestation.

Choosing to Breathe

Choosing to Breathe
Breathing is the essence of life!

It’s also the essence of yoga. 
Breathe is our life force.
As long as we are breathing, we are alive.

We go through life with very shallow breath and we don’t even acknowledge it.

When we are depressed, stressed or anxious our breath is uneven and choppy.
When we are tense, we hold our breath. 
If we feel scared, we might gasp for breath. 

On the other hand, when we feel calm and relaxed the breath will become slow and even. 
I understand the struggle when it comes to this.
Addiction and anxiety always made my breath erratic. 

We all live very busy lives and get stuck in the daily grind or the hustle and bustle of life.
It’s challenging and exhausting at the same time to find any balance. 

As you learn to breathe slowly and deeply you will calm the mind, as well as the emotions that might be triggering you that day. 
Then with a calm and clear mind you have the tools to face any situation head on. 

If your like most people you probably don’t pay attention to the breath.
That’s ok! It’s completely normal.
