Where am I going to?
What am I walking toward?
(2x)
I’m gonna breathe
into the flow, flow, flowing.
by Karly Loveling
Breathe easy, let it all go.
Rest your body; trust your soul
to guide your way and keep you whole.
Breathe easy, let go.
by Wendy Luella Perkins
loving-kindness to my body
loving-kindness to my mind
loving-kindness to each and every joy
and heartbreak of my time
loving-kindness to my spirit
loving-kindness to my soul
loving-kindness to each and every part
loving-kindness to the whole
zipper: your body, our bodies, all bodies
by Kathleen Hannan
1. I lay under a tall oak tree,
asked the Goddess to shelter me.
She wrapped me up in ancient green,
ancient green.
2. All my tears, all my tears,
all my tears, the river’s gonna wash away.
by Penny Stone
with the Serenity Singers of Edinburgh
One day at a time.
Keep it simple.
by Gérone Pascal
(with harmonies by Patricia Norton)
Andito ngayon
Sa aking puso
Ang bawat hininga
Maginhawa.
Here now
in my heart
Every breath
Full of ease.
(Tagalog language from the Pilipinas Islands)
