With closed eyes practise the awareness of body sensations for a while. Then come to the awareness of your breathing as done before and stay with this awareness for a few minutes .... Reflect now that this air that you are breathing is charged with the Power and the PRESENCE of God. Think of the air as of an Immense OCEAN that surrounds you .... an ocean heavily coloured with God’s presence and God’s being .... While you draw the air into your lungs you are drawing God in .... Be aware that you are drawing in the Power and Presence of God each time you breathe in... Stay in this awareness as long as you can... Notice what you feel when you become conscious that you are drawing God in with each breath you take ......

ANOTHER REFLECTION

1. While you breathe in, be conscious of God’s Spirit coming into you Fill your lungs with the divine energy he brings with Him ....

2. While you breathe out, imagine you are breathing out all your impurities .... your fears .... your negative feelings .... Your shortcomings and weaknesses.

3. Imagine you see your whole body becoming radiant and alive through this process of breathing in God’s life-giving Spirit and breathing out all your impurities ......

Stay with this awareness as long as you can without distractions.
