As I sat at my computer this morning cleaning up my desktop,
sorting through files,
sending them to the appropriate folders,
I found a sense of clarity.

I found myself breathing deeply......
that cleansing breath that is sometimes forgotten.

As I was breathing I noticed a tightness in my shoulder....
Wow, where did that come from?

Continuing to breathe deeply into my gut and releasing........ the tightness melts.

Why is it so hard to breathe and process emotions?
Why do we think holding our breath will deflect the impact of emotions?
Are we bracing ourselves?
Deflecting the energy assault?
Does it work?

NO! Our bodies become like a computer desktop with files just collecting and cluttering until we stop and sort.

We have to open the file, look and then sort.

Think about the many emotions we experience daily, what do you do with them?
