Beautiful Moments…

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but the number of moments that take our breath away.”

Let these words by our wise friend Anonymous serve as a guidepost as you move through your life this week.

I encourage you to ask yourself this question, “What am I doing to create space in my life and within myself to experience moments that take my breath away”?

Let your breath be your guide.

Next time you notice something beautiful or something that feels good, take one conscious breath.

Thoroughly take in the delight and linger in the deliciousness of the moment.

Creating space for a beautiful life is that easy.

I encourage you to try a few of these simple practices.

Listen to the rain falling or the creek flowing.
Feel the sun on your face.
Focus on the beauty of a flower.
Close your eyes and recall the details of a special memory.
Watch your child play or sleep.
Stand in front of the mirror and look into your eyes with love and compassion.
Read a poem out loud. Then read it again.
Bow down and touch the earth.
Gaze at the moon.

My wish for you is a week infused with the spaciousness of beautiful moments.
