It is quite easy to get caught up in the story of your life. “What else is there?” you ask when trying to imagine life without the drama. There is simply being. This is a state you knew quite well when first you entered the body. You looked about you and had no worries. The mind did not chatter away for it had not yet been filled with experiences. Now that these have built up, they have taken on a life of their own. This is the story. How to clear away the clouds blocking you from your true nature and the inherent peace in being? Spend just a few minutes every so often being still. Breathe. Focus on nothing other than This. Just as a runner pauses every so often to catch the breath, you can recharge in the same way.
You are so very loved.
*Note from Suzanne: Sanaya always tells me what title to put on these daily messages. I leave my meditation room and go to the living room to post them first on Facebook, then on my website and Awakened Way app. Minutes ago as I posted this message on Facebook, Sanaya said, “Call this one ‘Just Breath’.” I wrote the title at the end of the post as I always do, then went to my website to post the message there. Just as I typed “Just Breathe” in the title block FAITH Hill came on our Pandora station singing what? “Just breathe!” I captured the moment on video because you just can’t make this stuff up. We are part of one big web, my friends. Here’s the recipe for being in the flow: 1. Ask to be guided moment by moment. 2. Remain aware for snags and nudges 3. Act on them and 4. Trust that you are always guided. Blessings abound!
Beautiful message.
I just love this narrative. These things happen so often when one’s tuned in but it’s also so easy to get ‘tuned out’. Thank you for this Suzanne.
Such a lovely reminder- as I get to hold my almost 3 wk old grandson several times a week, giving support to my dtr and SIL.
I received this message yesterday … seems very aligned with your message today.
Meditation is like training wheels. You need to sit still in order to be able to observe the movement of your thoughts and feelings, but once you have gained some skill in sitting you need to expand your practice to include waking day to day activities. We know how addictive the external world can be, but your perception of the outer events of your life are perceived via your senses, which are by design, an inward process. Staying in the present moment takes practice. Remember your breath. If you pay attention to your breath you will stay present. Just ask yourself every so often during the day – how is my breath?
My husband and I just finished talking about “being present in the moment” which has not been our habit. When I read “Just Breathe” I got the message that taking a breath first can be the entry into the moment. So simple!
Little did Faith Hill know – but i’ll bet she hears about this. And, there’ll be a reason she does. But that’s her life. This is yours and mine and yes, we are all together in this.
Then we sre told to “Just breathe” as if the magnitude of this isn’t overwhelming… lol… but yea… “just breathe …and get to know your neighbours.
This is so good. I love you Suzanne! This message brings tears to my eyes. This truth is so simple, yet it’s the connecting thread.
WOW! and now i have another ripple to add up to our experience with Just Breathe.
1st… this is what my Spirit Guardian says to me often. Along with “this is just a story”.
Moments before your message hit my mailbox, i was having a challenging text conversation with my son.
I looked at my phone, and the time was, 1:11, my birthday, so i recognized that my Guardian was saying…”remember, its just a story”…and i relaxed and thought “just breathe.” Just then your Daily message came in !
Love is all there is. i share this prayer with you, Blessed Soul… O Divine One , let me be a hollow reed from which the pith of self has been blown, that i may be a pure channel thru which Your Love may flow to all.
Amazing truths as always! Helps so much to be reminded, thank you ❤️❤️❤️
Ohhh yes I believe! We have an air bnb and so often I chat with guests! The other day a woman named Elly and myself spent an hour sharing story (that’s what Hawaiians call it) – she mentioned going to the beach and her skin condition brought on by the death of her son – he died in a motorcycle crash! At that moment he stepped in and began listing pictures of things to speak to her about – the most striking was a gardenia which she had just spent time smelling in my backyard unbeknownst to me!
It was an incredible three way visit from her son Tacoma me and her!
It was pure magic and love!
We were an unplanned stay for her and her husband – but was it really? I know the universe truly has it’s beautiful plan! Yes the snags and nudges are real!
So very beautiful and moving. Thank you so much, dear Suzanne, for sharing these amazing messages.
Love and endless gratitude
Thank you for this perfectly time message from spirit. I get nudges from a certain number sequence.
I just put my teen on a plane to Europe for exchange. Desperately nervous, wondering if I was doing the right thing, his plane ticket printed at the counter had my own number sequence front and center. It wasn’t on the original reservation so there was no way u could have seen it before the perfect time in the perfect place- last night at the airport. And this message just reinforces it. Many thanks!!!
This message is particularly special for me — it describes so perfectly my daily practice, which brings me so much joy and peace. Thank you sooo much for sharing the daily messages, and thanks so much to Sunaya. I very much enjoyed your extra message about posting this one.
I am staying with my granddaughter her husband and their very new baby, The baby is learning about life in her body and her afternoons are a challenging as she is settling in to this new life. We just breathe and rock her and stay with the breath and rock her.
The love this baby has brought in to our lives makes my heart burst I am so very blessed
Many thanks to Suzanne and Sanaya
The minute I read the title, the song popped into my head! I forget to breathe so much I need a machine to help me at night! But I also catch myself during the day forgetting to breathe, to let go, to just BE! When I do remember, its like starting the whole day over again!!!! Life is a series of breaths, and each one can be a new start to the day, even at night! I had a very busy day yesterday and forgot to check in with JOY! I remembered when i turned off the light, and bam just like that i was at peace again. LOVE YOU so much, Sam led me to you, and in doing so led me to JOY.
This message resonates with me on so many levels. Thank you for the affirmation I believe with my soul and feel in my body.
Many blessings❤️
A few hours after I read this post, I jumped in my Jeep to head to my boat on the river. My pontoon (The “Don’t Postpone Joy”) is my respite and my favorite place to “just breathe.” When I started the Jeep, “Just Breathe” was playing on the radio. I cried happy tears, of course. These lovely synchronicities happen so often and can never happen enough! Thank you Suzanne and Sanaya. You are so very loved. :-)
I love this beautiful message from Sanaya. Just breathe, and while we breathe, let us remember that the oxygen we take into our lungs is freely given for us to live our very best life. Let us give thanks to express our appreciation and then freely share love and joy!♥️
How very uplifting to read all these inspiring comments !
Why I’m adding in my “ two cents” worth is because just reading so many others are experiencing them too helps me understand there is HOPE in this world of ours. We are never alone and always have Guidance available to/for us!
Thank you to all of you who have shared ❤️ and to Suzanne for sharing Sanaya with us.🌟
