The breath is a great refuge from worry and uncertainty - it's going on all the time and we don't need to do anything with it, but we can rest our attention there as a refuge from worry, anxiety and planning for the future. A real resting place, available at any time.
Jiva, yes! Mind needs to work, sometimes race. Mind needs to rest, in refuge, in breath, always breathing. Thanks.

Breath as Refuge
Indeed, my breath is my refuge, my safe place to assure me that I am also alive and well. And I am grateful. Thank you, Jiva, for this refreshing meditation. Namaste and Metta. ๐๐ป

Refuge
I learned that itโs okay to take refuge in my breathing in order to step away from the stresses and anxieties of the day.
