Stay in your lane and consciously breathe daily

What does that sentence or statement, mean to you? Where does your perception go with it?

Your conditioning will determine if it’s positive or negative and your feelings will tell you the truth and or  the lies.

With conscious awareness of your breathing, will determine your current mental physical state.

When one becomes more aware of breathing with flow not force the changes will occur.

The intentions, while consciously breathing in the nose and diaphragm with eyes closed in a safe place is key.

Breathing will tell you through your feelings.  To release the conditioned fears, which are nothing more than lies, or receive abundance or prosperity, or restore health and your inner peace. 

 

The more, I embrace my inspired creativity with action the more I learn the power of the creative process, and the life changing effects of proper breathing.

I am reminded the importance of having a morning self regulating discipline.   For myself, I can change it up between 2 to 3 different processes.  Before I even get out of bed, I focus on slow deep nose, diaphragm breathing inhales and exhales from 3 to 6 rounds.

Along with that, I focus on gratitude with my right hand on my heart.  This is an empowering way to get the heart to the mind and body in harmony. I like to focus on gratitude for my family and friends, and all those that paved the way for me to thrive today.  

When I get up out of bed.  I like to drink minimum 8 to 10 ounces of water. I will add cayenne pepper, cinnamon, ground garlic powder, and ground ginger.. I will add some lemon juice as well along with a cap full of apple cider vinegar to cleanse the system.

Depending on my day, I will going to a 5 to 10 minute breathing meditation, sometimes humming or chanting.

I normally do this sitting Indian style. I will also go into the  pressure points on my hands and different parts of the body, depending on what needs to be released..

From there I will stand up into a slow swinging movement. Letting my arms and shoulders relax. 

After this I go into a strengthening and stretching routine that I’ve been doing since 2011.

 Thanks so much for checking out the latest.

 I appreciate the positive thoughts, feelings and energy. This is key that we send between each other. This makes things flow and grow daily..

Remember keep the inspired creativity fuel by taking action. 

Confidence is freedom without any validation.

Ego is a conditioned lie for the constant need for validation and compliments.

Be present art by @paulcarterart

Stay in the present daily. Art by paulcarterart 

I hear your thoughts and feelings after reading that sentence. Why is it important to stay and be present all day every day?

I don’t believe in multitasking. It is a conditioned lie. Yes we are each able to start multiple projects at any given time. Of course logic will say it can be gardening or painting etc.  You get the point.

I remember when I first started shaping with the guidance of Steve Bohne the master craftsman of Infinity Surfboards.

He taught me a solid foundation of what I call shaping by numbers.  I Handshaped around 120-25 boards for the shop, and many of those were custom. This all began in 1992.  Little did I know in the late 80s after shaping a couple of boards, and modifying some of the boards. I was riding for Hobie Surfboards at the time and Timmy Patterson was shaping all my boards at the time, and they were great.That’s another story.

I’m around 35 or 40 boards into my shaping tourney and totally motivated and excited that I can shape my own Custom Boards.  I was able to shape any size board for myself and anyone.

In my excitement, I began cutting out not one but four or five different boards from 7’6 to 9’6.  I rough shaped each one of those boards and they were all in the racks over the shaping room. 

I was stoked and very motivated for many reasons to say the least.

So the next day Steve walks in the room and looks at all of the rough shaped boards on the racks and another one on the shaping stands . Well, he looked at all of the u uncompleted boards .  He calmly said ,Paul this is great. These look great and it is awesome to see all of these boards rough shaped you have been busy. He looks at me and says, but I have to tell you one thing we are not unable to sell any of the Surfboards until one of them is completed and on the show room of the shop. 

I have carried this lesson and reminder ever since that day and the Shaping Rm in 1993.

I applied this to just about everything with paintings with a Projects and of course Surfboards.

It’s one thing to prep canvases as an example. But again the same important reminder applies to everything I do in my life.   My positive intentions are that this will make logical sense to you. To complete projects and not create unnecessary pressure or weight on your shoulders.  In your life as it has helped me in my Life.

Stay present with healthy priorities daily, by @paulcarterart

Stay present with healthy priorities daily.

I am reminded the importance of having healthy priorities in the mornings before I start my day.

@paulcarterart

When I first wake up, I like to do some basic stretching and movements before I get out of bed

Depending on how my body feels, I will do a head and neck, rotation, and stretching at least two sometimes three times a week.  I also have a hand pressure point that I do along with my breathing meditation once or twice a week..

It’s important to flush the system in the morning. This is what I use with water and lemon with a couple, shakes of cayenne pepper, cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground garlic. 

I also include 17 vine, ripened whole foods, powders.

In my first drink. The water content is between eight and 10 ounces. The next one consist of electrolytes and amino powders.

I also make a large smoothie between 15 and 20 ounces with a some more of the 17 fine ripen fruit and vegetables, powders. I also add some cacao, Chia, seeds, hemp seeds, ground flaxseed, meal along with a protein powder I drink this 1-3 hours later depending on my daily activities.

This is my morning fluids and fuel till 1030to 1130 depending on what I’m doing.

I have been on this regime for the last 10 years consistently going back to 2011 for most it.

Do what works for your mind and body. The key is being consistent and discipline to do it..

The above art image is a great reminder of the importance of staying present and being present with healthy priorities.  I have 2 to 4 different breathing and meditation exercises that I change them up. The one that is most consistent is a breathing humming or chanting meditation..

 

Thank you for following the journey. Let me know if you have any questions or Comments?.
