Happy New Year to everyone who is ready to learn the lessons from the past year, put those experiences behind you, and move into this New Year with renewed enthusiasm and determination to make it the best year of your life to date!
This is my resolve anyway, with the theme for this year to “Stay Inspired!”
So just how do we do that? Good question! The first answer, of course, is to BREATHE! Not just breathe like you have always been breathing…unconsciously, unenthusiastically. But to breathe like you mean it! After all, “Inspire” means to “Breathe in”…So, BREATHE IN DEEP! Take in a full breath of life into your lungs. Do this OFTEN. FEEL your connection to the Life Force within you and the world around you. Make your determination to meet life head on to get the most out of whatever experience it brings to you!
So how do I stay inspired? I have been thinking about this, there are many random things that can produce momentary fits of inspiration, but to STAY inspired for the long haul requires a routine that supports your well-being. For me this includes:
- Daily Meditation
- Introspection
- Study of Inspiring people and thoughts
- Exercise (my favorite is Yoga)
- Service
- And of course…regular conscious breathing practices like those I teach through Breathflow!
Keeping these elements consistently in my life helps me to keep my perspective on the bright side. Oh yeah there is one more: TAKE ACTION…LOTS of it! like Reaching out and interacting with others, especially when I begin to feel low. So reach out…How do YOU stay inspired?

HI Christian, Yes reaching out and getting inspired by others is so important. We are all in this human boat together to share who we are – to be inspired and inspire others in turn. Thankyou for your inspiration! Dana
