When we practice paying attention, whether in meditation, yoga (moving mediation), or simply walking down the street, we can choose to be at ease, or choose to be tense. It's a choice, and that choice is up to no one but us to decide.

Everything you need to know is right there inside, waiting for you to tap in and discover it, and then hopefully do something about it.

When we are at ease, our bodies work efficiently, our minds settle, and space opens up for us to connect to our intuition, creativity, and sense of connectedness.

Each full, deep inhale creates more space in your body and mind. Each long, exhale moves you directly into that space. The deeper you breathe, the more opens up. It's like opening a door and walking through with each breath. The fuller your breaths the more and more doors open on up, leaving you with the space to walk on in!

Each movement reminds us that every moment invites a new opportunity for change.

Why is balance important? From a life lesson standpoint, it's about learning to enjoy yourself without getting the ego involved.
