“The interruption of a settled and peaceful condition”. When your head feels heavy, loaded with multidirectional thoughts, worries and doubts, notice your energy level and your emotional state. By switching your awareness to the breath, you become the observer of the disturbed mind and have the power to make choices to restore peace. Breathing slowly and consciously creates space between thoughts allowing the chattering voice to quiet down so you see that disturbance is neither you, nor your essence. Conscious breathing quiets the mind, harmonizes the energy and balances the emotions.
