Personal Mine by Carol Arvo Monday, March 08, 2010 Rated "PG" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan One person's way of dealing with sress and how she gets through the day.
Slowly, quietly, my body raises the breath within me as a miner raises coal from the earth’s belly. Slowly, I twist and bend and stretch. I mine my breath. Worries, deadlines, anxiety, and fears disappear into my yoga beam of light. Slowly, I contract, release, and stretch. Again, I mine my breath. Quietly, I go within my pit for peace, confidence, and serenity. I mine my breath, breathe deeply, and tunnel through another day.

Wow, what a beautiful aphorism. Allthough I hope that some days you wake up, jump out of bed and happily go to work.
