The Breathing Song
Breathe and Transform: Unlocking Inner Peace Through Narwhals and Waterfalls' Melodic Wisdom
Lyrics
Do you ever feel mad or afraid?
Asking if one ever experiences anger or fear.
And you wanna say something mean?
Desire to express something hurtful.
I'm gonna show you something that you can try
Promising to introduce a coping mechanism.
All you gotta do is breathe
Suggesting that the solution is as simple as breathing.
Like a butterfly (inhale) open your wings
Metaphorically likening breathing to a butterfly opening its wings during inhalation.
Like a butterfly (exhale) close your wings
Metaphorically likening breathing to a butterfly closing its wings during exhalation.
Like a crocodile (inhale) open your jaw
Metaphorically likening breathing to a crocodile opening its jaw during inhalation.
Like a crocodile (exhale) close your jaw
Metaphorically likening breathing to a crocodile closing its jaw during exhalation.
Do you ever feel sad or upset?
Asking if one feels sadness or agitation.
And you want to hurt someone?
Feeling a desire to cause harm to someone.
Instead of doing that, listen to me
Offering an alternative to harming others.
All you gotta do is breathe
Suggesting that breathing can be an alternative solution.
Like a dolphin (inhale) jump out of the sea
Metaphorically likening breathing to a dolphin jumping out of the sea during inhalation.
Like a dolphin (exhale) dive into the sea
Metaphorically likening breathing to a dolphin diving into the sea during exhalation.
Like a pufferfish (inhale) tummy puffs out
Metaphorically likening breathing to a pufferfish's expanding belly during inhalation.
Like a pufferfish (exhale) tummy sinks down
Metaphorically likening breathing to a pufferfish's contracting belly during exhalation.
Now that we know what to do
Expressing awareness of a coping mechanism.
When you're feeling sad or upset
Reiterating the scenarios prompting sadness or agitation.
Let's try them all together now
Suggesting practicing the breathing exercises collectively.
And find the one we like best
Encouraging finding the most preferred breathing technique.
Inhale
Directive to inhale.
Exhale
Directive to exhale.
