While looking for a book for a different project, I spotted the title, Oxygen, and thought this book held some promise. Before I even left the thrift store, I knew that it would have to say “Just Breathe.”
It’s something I have to say to myself on a regular basis, whether I’m overwhelmed by the demands of two teenagers and multiple sports teams, or just overcome by ideas and not enough time to implement them.
I made this book differently than others. In order to add to the message, I also carved the top and bottom edges of the pages. This is a particularly challenging task, since the book pages move when the cover and pages are lifted. As I worked, the pages would shift in position, making it a challenge to cut in the right places.
I also used two different styles–one edge has the letters recessed an the other edge has them in relief.
This book serves as a great reminder of the healing force of breath.
