Settling Breath

Settling Breath

Bring the feet hip distance wide. The arms are by your side, palms facing out. As you inhale your arms float up to your side and overhead. As you exhale, palms face down towards the earth and you draw your arms and hands down in front of the body. You repeat this three times and each time your intention changes. The first time you are clearing out what no longer serves you from the form of your body, the sedond time you are filling with energy and intention and the third time you are sealing what you filled into your body.
