Welcome

Welcome to Broken Wings. These writings are a part of my own journey of self discovery. I have no answers, but I am asking questions and pondering and looking within to see what I find. I share my writings in hope of helping others in their journey of self discovery, in hopes of encouraging others to look within themselves to find the insights in to their own questions.

All I know is that I know nothing

Just Breathe

There is no right or wrong way to quiet our self and find our inner voice, there is no correct label for what we refer to the process as...some call it centering, some call it reconnecting, some call it relaxation or meditation.  It's not the label or the exact method that it important, it's the outcome and the outcome we desire to achieve is a state of relaxation.

If we do this for ourselves every day we will find it is very beneficial to our mind as well as our body.

We can spend minutes or hours connecting with our quiet place and relaxing ourselves.  In the beginning it may take us longer to achieve this state, but in time, with practice and patience it will become easier and natural for us.  Remember, this is not a race or a contest.  RELAX and do what works best for you.

Understanding our need to connect with our mind, body and spirit and finding a way to put it into practice is an important part of our journey back to who we are.  It will help us to once again learn how to fly.

Your breathing is important, it sustains your body, don't forget this.  All of the relaxation techniques you may come across will stress the importance of your breath.  Now, take a slow, deep breath,  relax your body and remember....you are loved, you are lovable, you are loving.  Breathe this in, embrace this and remind yourself of this often.
