Living and dying with each breath
In this meditation I invite you to explore a profound truth about aging, death, and what it means to truly live.
- Each breath is a complete cycle of life and death—learning to be present with the emptiness after the exhale teaches us to release our grip on life while paradoxically living more fully
- Slowing down is not giving up—it's a deeper form of caring that allows us to be present with what matters most
· The invitation is to stop running and start walking. Feel the pause between breaths. Let death be on your shoulder not as a threat, but as a friend reminding you that this moment—this very moment—is the only one guaranteed.
· How will you choose to live this moment?
