Slow, coherent breathing strengthens vagal tone and heart-brain coherence. Gentle, repeated practices reshape neural pathways—what we practice literally grows stronger in our brains. Poetry and art invite the right brain to engage, naturally calming the limbic system and opening space for meaning, hope, and divine connection.
"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
