Breath

And another quote I found when preparing for this mornings yoga class.

“If you would foster a calm spirit,

First regulate your breathing;

For when that is under control,

A heart will be at peace;

But when breathing is spasmodic,

Then it will be troubled.

Therefore, before attempting anything

First regulate your breathing

On which your temper will be softened,

Your spirit calmed.”
