My Present, Moment. ~ Almudena Alcazar

via on Feb 22, 2012

I am no longer a runner. I am a human being at peace now, someone open to change without fear. I no longer log miles, I now mentally log positive thoughts.

In Minneapolis, El Paso and Las Cruces, there was a moment of breathing technique we did where we took conscious breaths while meditating on the idea that many people elsewhere in the world were breathing the exact same way and therefore we really share this breath, this pranayama (breath and life force energy) with many others.
