Breath of the Tides

6-2-6-2

Inhale… slow and steady…
Pause.

Exhale… soft and full…
Pause.

This is the breath of the tides.
A rhythm shaped by the ocean and encoded in your nervous system.

With each inhale, you expand — reaching, receiving.
With each exhale, you release — softening, returning.

The pauses in between are sacred.
The pauses in between are sacred.
The moment a wave touches its furthest edge on the sand —
then holds… suspended…
before returning to the deep.

That moment is not about effort.
It is the body’s quiet knowing: You are safe to let go.

This 6-2-6-2 rhythm strengthens your ventral vagal tone — the pathway of calm, connection, and embodied presence.

Let your breath rise like the tide.
Let it fall.

You do not have to control it.
Only notice it.

And in doing so, you remember:
You are already held.
