Balance begins with the breath

I tried yoga for the 1st time just before Chinese new year. We did a lot of balancing...starting by standing on 1 leg.

I relfected about the importance of balance in the natural order of life. Inner balance...inner peace.

Now i understand that balance begins with the breath. Taking in and letting go are the primal rhytms of life.

Last week, when I felt extreme anger and sorrow, I breathed deeply to find my balance.
