I find my HAVEN in breath. One thing I've come to realize after years of doing yoga (and a recent scuba diving trip), is how much I take breathing for granted. It is our life force, physically, of course, but can bring so much unexpected physical and emotional release if you take a moment to pause and just breath. This is something yogis figured out a very, very long time ago, but its nice to be reminded of it.
My survival tip for the holiday season is something my dad used to (and still does) remind me do when I got overwhelmed: Take 3 deep breaths. And keep breathing. Let out an audible sigh or flutter your lips as you exhale. Even if it feels silly, it relaxes the muscles in your jaw and around your mouth where people frequently hold tension without realizing it.
