Stay Present Amidst Uncertainty: My Fave Tool
I love sharing spiritual tools with you with this blog.
Sometimes it's a poem, mantra, prayer, breath exercise, or affirmation. But each technique is one I’ve tried and tested over the decades and is now part of my box of go-tos. The ones I rely on when I need additional support, assistance or help reconnecting to the truth of myself, which is love.
Today I felt called to share one that I return to again and again. It's a breath I was taught by my guru over twenty years ago called the Chittakash, which is the heart space over the head.

As Ram Dass wrote, “Chittakash is the place where consciousness and love merge, where they become the same thing. It’s where the pure aspects of all qualities come together; a timeless and nameless space where everything is present, where you know everything, but you’re not attached to anything.”
Being in the Chittakash, allows you to remain open hearted yet detached- despite what you may be experiencing. It can offer you a renewed sense of peace and tranquility, regardless of the chaos surrounding you.
It’s really pretty magical in that regard.
The amazing thing about using this breath is that it allows you to be fully present, clear and compassionate while also feeling curiously insulated. Interestingly, it’s not a feeling of being numb or dissociated, but rather a reconnection to a state of grace and flow.
Wanna try it?
If there’s only ONE breath you learn this life, choose this one. It really is that powerful.
Know that you are always divinely protected.

Prayer for Peace
Some days it feels hard not to succumb to strife – be it internal or external.
Particularly when there feels like there’s so much churning taking place. Whether it’s within your own being, with your family/friends, society or planetary, it’s hard not to get sucked into it.
Especially as a sensitive person.

When that happens, it’s difficult to maintain equilibrium.
Which is why I developed a mantra/breath. I’ve been incorporating it my mediation practice lately.
It’s been helping me stay grounded, feel more peaceful, clear and calm.
I’ve written it up so you can use it, too.
Why not give it a try and see if it helps?
Feel free to change any of the words so it resonates more fully with you.
Let me know how it goes!
