“Choosing stillness in the midst of chaos is the path toward living in peace.”- Deepak Chopra

So many things in our lives pull us away from our natural state of just being, rather we are inundated with a million to-do’s and forget how to just be. In allowing stillness into your life you create a space to really get to know you. In this place of quiet allowance you can tap into a sacred space of stillness and it is in this stillness that peace begins to grow. The more you practice stillness, the more your mind and body crave this sensation of serenity. When you find peace within, then you can begin to spread that stillness in our world. A lovely ripple effect will begin to take place. When you are at peace, all of those you come in contact with will feel that peace and the energy you emit will be felt.

You might be thinking, “Well that sounds nice but I don’t have time to find serenity in my day.” I would offer that it truly can take 2 minutes of focused attention and quiet to start tapping into that place inside. Perhaps you can find this time before the hustle and bustle starts in the morning, when you are driving in the car and you focus on your breathing, or at night before you settle in. Wherever you can carve some time out in your day for you, your mind & body will thank you. If you have more time to set aside for this personal journey of finding stillness, then that will only magnify the beautiful effects. Try it out and see what a difference it can make in your life. Find your stillness. Find your peace.
