Have you ever heard something and thought to yourself - yeah, really, it´s that simple, no way!
And then you might give it a go, half-heartedly, because, well...it really cannot be that simple, can it?
So you dabble a little, get no obvious results, and give up. You see, I told you, it is not that simple, you say. 

​Every day, millions of people do this with lots of different things they dabble. They hear something that sounds too easy and too good to be true.  BUT, well, what if it works, so they "give it a go" -  BUT they don't give it a chance. ​​

I did this for many years with breathing. I mean, we breathe every minute of every day, don't we? So what´s the big deal?
Thankfully, eventually, I decided to make a conscious, focused effort to plug in. I kept coming across research and articles and courses about Breathwork until I really couldn't ignore it any longer. 
..........................and wow!

If there is one thing that changes everything in your life, it is your breath. 
Breathing not only supplies our organs with oxygen. It also rids the body of waste products and toxins……and it is all about flow!
​When we are flowing, we feel good….it´s that simple!
Did you know:

• it is possible to survive for around 3 weeks without food or 3 days without water?
• it is not possible to survive more than 5 - 6 minutes without breathing?
• conscious, focused breathing is fundamental for a healthy body and immune system?
• that your mind and body communicate through your breath?
• your breath is the signal to release chemical and hormonal messengers that initiate and regulate systems of your body?
• breathing consciously grounds you, brings you back to the present moment?
• focused breathing reduces stress levels?
• breathing techniques have been shown to improve many health issues?
• breathing consciously can reduce pain?
• that your breath is your life force and your power source?

Breath gives us life and optimal health. 
The first thing we do when we enter this world is inhale and the last thing we do before we gain our Angel Wings is exhale.
When you practice breathing consciously you oxygenate the cells and tissues of your body, you create and maintain flow, and you connect to your life force; you plug into your power source.
​​
If we do not plug in our appliances, they will not work.
If we do not start the ignition of our car, it will not go anywhere.
If we do not connect to our power source we will fade and eventually run out of energy. 

Go on! Give it a go!
It really IS that simple!

Can you see the black dot? 
Can you NOT see the black dot? 
It's not what you can see, it's how you choose to look at it that changes worlds. 
Don't try not to see the black dot - instead, notice the expanse of white around the black dot - this is the field of infinite possibilities - and choose to experience it all. 
This story written by Unknown has been around for a while. 
In the current climate, it's worth re-telling and reflecting on where our focus lies. 
If you believe that what you focus on expands, and when you focus on the goodness in your life, you create more of it - then you must also believe that when you focus on the black dots in your life, they will expand too. ​

Your challenge, should you wish to accept it, is to allow yourself to acknowledge the black dots in your life and then to see the the white space around them. That space is full of good things - the field of infinite possibilities.
Shift your focus from the black dot to encompass the white space, the whole of your life.
Celebrate everything in your life, even the black dots, because without them, you could not begin to appreciate the white space - the good things. 
So:
Step 1 - Decide that you are going to recognise and experience everything in your life; The black dots and the white space.
Step 2 - Acknowledge both, and acknowledge that there is something positive to be found in both. Allow yourself to                            experience the field of infinite possibilities.
Step 3  - IMAGINE, DREAM, FEEL how good it feels to change your perspective, to choose how you will live your life.
Step 4 - Choose to make how you feel your No. 1 priority. ( Even if it means you spend more time dreaming!)

What make impossible - I´M possible?  It´s quite simple really.....

Since time began, there have been things to which many people have said "impossible" and then, well, it turned out they were possible. 
So what changed? 
What made the difference?
We did, man did.
​Someone believed in the possibility and made it happen. 

​There are so many times I hear people saying "that´s impossible" about things that have not only been proved possible but also about things that even they have accomplished at one time, and now do not believe they can again. 
We quite often say it without thinking. Now that can have a really HUge impact because you see, the words we use and particularly the words we speak to ourselves are truly powerful. 
What if....within the impossible lies I´M possible?
Sometimes that's all it takes, to ask what if? and then imagine the possibility.
If you speak to any inventor, successful entrepreneur, or athlete, they will tell you that visualisation (imagination) is one of the most potent assets you have.
When you use your imagination often in your daily life-WOW!

Imagine all possibilities.
-Ask–what if? more often, and let your mind show you the “what if”
The only person stopping you from dreaming is you.
The only person preventing you from allowing your dreams-is you.

Do you know? - 
                You have the power at any time to change the way you feel.
Many people go through life thinking that they feel good or bad, happy or sad, content or angry, because of the people in their life, the things that are happening around them, or the environment that they are living in.
They believe that the actions of other people, the environment they are living in, and the things that are happening in their lives, are what influence their mood, i.e.  affect the way they feel.
While it is true that these things CAN influence the way we feel, they can only do so IF we allow it - No one, No place, and No thing can MAKE you feel a certain way unless you allow it to. 
I am going to say that again because most people do not really get it -
No one, No place, and No thing can MAKE you feel a certain way unless you allow it to. 
We are even brainwashed into believing that our happiness SHOULD depend on all of these things outside of us and outwith our control!
We are taught this from a very young age. When we live with this belief, we give away our power to feel better every day. 
What if it was a lie? 
What if, no matter what was going on around you, you could choose to be at peace with it, or not?  

You have no control over anyone else or their behaviour.
You have no control over your government, your weather, or your pets. 
The only thing you CAN control is how you react to anything, this will determine how you feel, your actions, and in turn the reactions from those around you. 
This alone changes your whole world!
Go on, give it a try, you have nothing to lose. 
Start today. ​

FEAR
Wikipedia says Fear is an emotion induced by perceived danger or threat, which causes physiological changes and ultimately behavioral changes, such as mounting an aggressive response or fleeing the threat.
FEAT
Wikipedia has no reference for Feat in the context I am using it in this article, however, in the Cambridge dictionary it says:
FEAT- something difficult needing a lot of skill, strength, courage, etc. to achieve it.

It is interesting to me that both words suggest something to be overcome and to me, the feat is the result of facing the fear.
"Fear" is the emotion we experience and when we conquer that fear we have achieved a "Feat". ​

How it works:
From childhood I had an extreme fear of water.
No, not the bath or shower (although I am sure some people do have that fear too!) it was fear of swimming pools and the sea. I suppose the fear was actually swimming, not really water. Anyway, I digress. 
At the age of 28 I decided I was going to take swimming lessons as I did not want to be scared all my life and not enjoy beaches and pool parties. I duly went for swimming lessons and was so proud of myself when I swam a breadth of the pool at the local swimming baths. That was it, I had overcome my fear or so I believed.
I had basically done enough to make me feel better about it and that was ok.
The thing was that I still avoided pools and beaches. 
When my daughter Keri was born, I was determined she would not be scared of water and I made sure I took her and then her sister and brother, first at 6 weeks to "dunk" them, as is the tradition, and then  for swimming lessons. I just made sure that someone else gave the lessons and I was not the one in the water with them. 
Throughout my 30´s and 40´s I convinced myself that I was not scared anymore I just preferred not to go in water out of my depth.
Then, I was unwell for a time and discovered "self-care" and with it the beaches!
As I live in Mallorca, there are many lovely beaches and I had never really benefited from their beauty, mainly because of my fear.
​Another 10 years on and my sister became seriously ill and that´s when I realised how fear paralyses us. I decided that I was not going to live my life in fear ever again. I took the time to examine the things that engendered fear in me, and guess what one of the biggest fears I had was - yes, you got it, swimming / water. 
I decided there and then, that I was going to conquer this for once and for all.
I had this amazing friend who started me off in a pool (haha) and gave me the encouragement and confidence I needed to go into the sea. I will be forever grateful to him for helping me to see other possibilities and take the 1st step. 

Am I 100% comfortable in deep water without diving gear? - No. I can honestly say that I am not; however, will I go into deep water, go on boats and swim out of my depth?- Yes, and I can honestly say it is one of my greatest feats. ​
