About Breath of the Soul

About the Breath of the Soul Meditation

The Breath of the Soul Meditation^™facilitates an direct experience of your Soul throughout your entire being. It utilizes your orientation in space/time and your clear heart’s intention to touch a state of consciousness known in the Soulsign work as omnidimensionality. Simultaneously you know yourself to be both matter and beyond matter.

It is a next-step pranayama or breath-based practice requiring nothing from us but our breath, our conscious attention, and our heartful willingness to see ourselves and the space around us as implicitly supportive. The actual practice arose in its rudimentary form quite spontaneously in a counseling session with Soulsign founder Adam Gainsburg. The client was striving to understand how she could move in her life from a more centered place. There wasn’t anything in her life particularly challenging or strongly calling her attention, other than an inner sense of wanting something more, but without clarity of what that was. So even from the beginning the Breath of the Soul appeared to bring to light what was occluded.

Since that time, several hundred people have been facilitated in the Breath of the Soul by the handful of trained practitioners currently incorporating the Breath into their counseling or healing practice. Each individual receives a unique and nuanced variation of the Breath of the Soul which customized just for them at that point in their unfolding. This highly adaptive quality of the Breath practice lets us know that it can address not only the Soul pattern of the individual, but their Identity make-up as well – who they are as an individual self. Clients who regularly work with the Breath on their own have reported how often their personal practice changes, depending on what they might be working on in themselves, what may be ready to be revealed, and where their energy is at the time. Others have called or emailed to report that they rely on their breath practice not only as a spiritual discipline for expanding their consciousness, but also as an effective technique for better responding to difficult situations emotionally.

In essence, the Breath of the Soul helps us to forge a very deep almost intimate connection between what we feel to be in here (such as our emotions) and what we perceive to be out there (such as a friend’s response to our emotions). It increases how much of ourselves we feel comfortable in, or as one practitioner calls it, the amount of real estate we feel to be authentically, truly us. How this happens is quite simple to understand: through our Breath practice, our center grows outward in all directions organically, facilitating a dropping away of fear of others and the unknown. The physical spaces we formerly held as ‘out there’ transform before our eyes, as ‘outside’ becomes ‘inside.’ We feel instantaneously at ease and notice that we are more present in more areas of our life.

We’ve learned that the BOS can be used in four main ways, as a diagnostic too, as a healing modality, as a device for balancing and as a spiritual practice.

“What is the use of practicing for so long all those hundreds of windy pranayama practices which are difficult and bring diseases and the many yogic exercises, which are painful and difficult to master. Constantly serve only one guru to attain that spontaneous and natural state. When it arises the powerful prana immediately stills of its own accord.” – v.53 from the Guru Gita of the Shiva Purana
