Your breath is the greatest asset you have. It’s naturally meditative and always with you. It reflects your most powerful emotions and allows you to either soothe or harness them. It helps you to feel sold, whole and in complete control of your life while grounding you in the present moment, clarifying the mind and unshackling your instincts.
