There are many rites of passage that occur in our lives that we discard as not important because they do not fit into the acceptable or commonly acknowledge elements of initiation.  We know the standard ones such as certain ages or things like marriage or accolades of sorts.  Each day however we experience a level of initiation within ourselves.  Each breath is an initiation into a new moment.  We awaken our hearts and alert our minds that we are ready to keep going.  It is a default in our system and it happens so many times throughout the day.  it is only when we are deprived of the breath do we realize we are being initiated into a different experience.  What would it look like to use the initiation of our breath intentionally? What might we set a new trajectory for in our lives if we utilize the automatic feature of our breath to awaken the spirit of life that is present within us?  How might it color our day if we paused to recognize whatever we are experiencing at the moment has an opportunity to shift when we use our breath to initiate a course change.  We have the capacity to initiate a new focus, to stop what we are currently doing and evaluate it, or even simply move our body.  These kinds of initiations do not need to show up on anyone else’s radar.  They are not dependent upon outside value.  We can utilize our own system to create an initiation into the kind of life we want and feel called in our hearts to live one breath at a time.
