There are two pauses to be mindful of… the pause at the end of the inbreath and the pause at the end of the outbreath. After we breathe in and gather there comes the upbeat, the pause… This is the raising of the conductor’s baton just before he beats the first beat. It is the “and” of the dance teacher letting the class know they need to be poised and ready. Then with the outbreath, the downbeat, the “1”, come the expansion of energy, of action, of engagement, of letting go… At the end of the exhalation there is a beautiful pause. The pause in which to let go of the thoughts. The pause into the big blue sky. This is the stillness that gives us time. It is the stillness where we let go and survey the landscape. Then we breathe in and we gather up again, we pause and let go again into the stillness. And so it is. This tapping script is for the pause that we need when we feel overwhelmed – it is the pause which comes when we stop trying to hold onto the inbreath, and allow the outbreath…
