For the Days When Breathing Feels Like the Only Thing Left

I made this for you. For the days when just getting out of bed takes everything you have. For the days when Grief is taking up all the space. For the days when the waves seem like they will never stop.

How This Practice Came To Be

My name is Amy Von Der Ahe. I'm a yoga therapist. Above all, I'm Johnny's mother. When I lost Johnny, I lost the ground under my feet. The world went silent. No book, no words, and no well-meaning advice could touch the ache. What helped me most was the simplest thing — breathing. Some days, that's all I could manage: a breath in, a breath out. This practice is not a fix. It's a hand to hold while you ride on in the hardest moments. I made it because I know what this pain is. And I know that sometimes the only way to ride a wave is to breathe.
