10 Days of Holiday Stress Relief

What's next? 

Anticipating.   In one long-drawn in-breath of incessant drumbeats the internal pressure increases making my head hurt till finally -- no more space to expand -- the wave crests, ahhh, sailing, exhaling, freely surveying as I look 'round from the other side. 

Preparing for holidays I naturally notice anticipation building.  But while busying about, I can change up the rhythm by breathing OUT first and then later, breathing in.  So that's "Out ...pause...'N In." 

Prepare ye.  Look 'round.
