The ocean is vast and unimaginably mysterious.
Waves move in and recede,
Following a steady rhythm,
Much like our breath,
Flowing in.
We're often unaware of this natural movement that keeps us alive.
Simple.
Complex.
Mysterious.
Listen to the music and focus on your breath,
The quiet gift we've been given.
Moving in.
Staring into the ocean can be exhilarating,
Humbling,
Even terrifying.
Our bodies are made up of 50-70% water,
A reflection of our deep,
Ancient connection to it.
Today,
I encourage you to give thanks for the water that sustains us.
Whether you're sipping from a glass,
Or diving into your favorite swimming hole,
Take a moment to simply say,
Thank you.
Water is central to many creation myths,
Embodying both renewal and destruction.
It symbolizes the infinite potential of existence,
A boundless force from which life emerges.
The ancients envisioned the world rising from an undefined,
Fluid state,
Our consciousness drifting upward from a vast,
Primordial ocean.
Feel the air fill your lungs.
Reflect on our simple,
Beautiful dependence on water.
I'll leave you with a quote from Rick Rubin.
The universe is like an ocean.
The waves on the surface are constantly changing,
But the deeper you go,
The calmer it becomes.
Our minds work the same way.
When we access the deeper currents,
We tap into something more profound and timeless.
