Our lungs are essentially, a network of connected tubes that bring oxygen from the air into our blood, nourishing the trillions of cells that make up our bodies. The lungs also clena the blood of carbon dioxide waste created when cells use oxygen. We breathe in and out some 22,000 times per day, processing about 300 cubic feet of air.  National Geographic


Three Deep Breaths

Something Beautiful
Dorje
Sitting on bench
Watching and participating
In the morning.
It is quiet now
A time of 
Being.

Breath Meditation
Tired and foggy,
My breath is thin.
Presence flows 
Downward to the
Soles of my feet
Longing for the contact of
Earth
Wet grass 
Vitality.
My breath
now grows into
Fullness
