Harmonization
By: Steve Ridley
Sometimes it is necessary to be among trees, by a brook, the seashore or any peaceful good-feeling space, and take several minutes to relax into good breathing- breathing deeply, s l o w l y – to reestablish our center, our sense of fullness and balance.
Yogis have long taught the importance of good breathing and how the quality of our breath cycles directly influence the circulation-harmonization of prana (chi), which contributes to our particular state of health and well being.

Breaking strict association
with one less concept
We are freer; more alive, awake
as Wholeness
dualistically oriented.
* * *
Unclouding the mind
Centering openly
Whole now …
Balance is the secret.

Consciousness
presenting itself
uniquely, individually,
universally choir-ing
