Exploring Peace Meditations

How's your energy? Positive energy matters so much these days.  Let's find more of that good energy God longs for us to tap into and let go of anything else that gets in the way with this simple breath prayer. We'll practice breathing in positivity as we release negative emotions with each exhale. 

Inhale: I breathe in the goodness God offers me today
Exhale: I breathe out any negative thoughts, feelings, or emotions that get in my way

God's goodness is all around! Will you breathe it in today?
