The First 100 Days 100 Breaths

My  previous success in meditation had been like attempting to blue-tac jelly to a white-board.  Little wiggle bum/toosh here who needs to move and had the most un-tamed and unruly brain wanted, desired and NEEDED to become present....to experience FREEDOM...Blessed be!    


I really do like the idea of being still and allowing my inner deeper flow to radiate.  But, why oh why was it "buzzing" upstairs?    Like a train terminal at peak hour, my mind used to race and take me on voyages into the past, forward to the future, anywhere but HERE NOW.


I knew it had to be "outside of my thinking brain"...(god forbid...return to the simple).  I had fear around that, believe me!   


And then the IT happened.  On 3rd February 2011 I decided to do 100 conscious breaths.  Conscious, now thats not just the idea of doing something purposely I committed to breathing 100 times and staying with the in and out breath the entire time, and to count. 


Breath in..................................1...........................breath out.
Breath in...................................2..........................breath out.
Breath in..................................3...........................breath out.


Those were the Rules.  Thats right, perhaps I should repeat myself because of the complexity of this. 


The Rules are:

  1. Breath consciously - (inhale and exhale)
  2. Count - (1 - 100)

Stop for a moment! (read the above again...just for clarity).   I'm smiling along with you,  I'm attempting to really pound something home here, its the Simplicity that makes this so powerful.   Purposeful conscious attention to the breath...and my discovery life its self.  But before I jump ahead here, some extra things to remember (oh good your brain may say because I might do it wrong).


Definition of the Boundaries - or the Playing Field

  1. You and your potential
  2. The universe and its potential
Your creativity with this...is the only limitation.  There are 100's of ways that you can breath consciously. 


Once I had done my first day of 100 conscious breaths, I was captivated by the delightfull peace I discovered.    I then committed to 100 days of 100 breaths.  Those days have allowed transformation I cannot even begin to articulate.  NOW I no longer concern myself about "sitting and meditating the correct way".  Instead I joyfully discover how many ways and possibilities there may be with jelly, blue-tac, white boards, and in fact anything I can comprehend....and  I often sit quietly and breath 100 times.....deeply inside of me...perhaps that could be meditation?...and the rest well thats just active altered trance!


100 Breaths, 100 Days in 100 Ways.


If you are willing to try this I would love to have your feedback.  


My own personal development and release from myself and old beliefs, and old habits, and rigid ways of thinking and allowing and connection with myself, and love of myself, and transformation of fear to love, and transformation of living within my flow and feeling far more connected than ever before and a deeper awareness and an awakening, that is building and gaining momentum and unfolding every moment - the practice of living life, and I am starting with my breath.  Karyn Janelle Davis


Finally I am playing with life itself and I'm starting with my breath.


The Power of your Breath is Extra-ordinary, its free, its transformational, there is simply no right nor wrong, its at your ease every moment of the day. Be inspired to transform everything and anything through the beautiful practice of conscious deliberate breathing....


If you are interested...please keep connected with me and we can breath our way to freedom together!
