The power of the second breath…

The first breath is instinct, it’s reaction, fear, emotion.

But the second breath... that’s where the choice lives.

When we pause, we shift. We allow space for peace to enter. We create room for compassion to speak before our habits do.

There is wisdom in the breath after the storm. The one that slows your pulse, opens your ears, and softens your words.

That second breath is sacred.

Take it.
