Do you long for more peace within yourself? In small steps you can find more peace within yourself. These tips help.

Find peace within yourself

It’s quite ironic when you think about it. A lot of things we do – things that make us restless and in a hurry – we do so that we can finally experience peace.

For example, we work very hard on a project, because when it is finally finished we have peace of mind. Or we feed our dissatisfaction with an endless list of things that need to be done differently . Because when we have made all those changes, “we will finally experience peace.”

The challenge of inner peace is that you cannot look for it – you can only give it space . The harder you push, the more difficult it is to experience true peace.

What can you do to find more peace within yourself? These 3 insights help me, maybe they will help you too.

1. You don’t have to change anything

That feeling that peace and happiness are always just around the corner is an illusion. And it is an illusion that can keep us entertained endlessly .

No, your next purchase will not give you inner peace. Even though you now know for sure that it is true. The same applies to all those changes you want to make within yourself.

Losing weight does not lead to inner peace. Nor is a perfect morning routine. Certainly not becoming rich and famous.

You will experience more peace if you observe your dissatisfaction and then let it go . See the unrest in your head. Notice how your ego is constantly looking for all kinds of ‘external solutions’ to find peace. And let it go quietly.

Rest doesn’t come when you run faster and faster. Peace comes when you come to a standstill.

2. Peace is what remains

The more often you manage not to act on your chronic dissatisfaction , the more inner peace you will experience.

Why? Because this way you step out of your own shadow .

You can compare it to a clear, smooth pond – this is inner peace. But a breath of wind causes waves to come into the water – this is dissatisfaction.

Instead of watching these waves until they disappear on their own, you decide to do something about them .

In your attempt to restore peace, you step into the pond to stop the waves. But this actually creates more waves. And not only that – your feet stir up the bottom, which also makes the pond cloudy.

Do you want to experience peace? Practice mindfulness: observe the waves and be patient . The water calms down, the mud sinks to the bottom – the pond becomes clear again. Dissatisfaction comes and goes.

The more you practice patience and mindfulness, the easier it will become for you.

3. Inner peace is the basis – not the goal

Inner peace is – just like health and happiness – the foundation of your daily life , not the goal.

What do I mean by that? Simple: your life runs better when you are calm. The deeper your inner peace becomes, the less you are carried away by life.

Here you can see your life as a river. In some places it flows calmly, in other places the water is very wild. Living from unrest is like being carried away on a small boat.

Sometimes the ride is pleasant but sometimes it is completely overwhelming and you are in danger of falling overboard.

Living from inner peace is more like resting on the bottom like a big boulder. Life flows through you , instead of the other way around. And because you are so stable, life cannot easily push you over.

This is a great foundation to start from. To work, take on challenges, make dreams come true, help others and spread your love. Not from that restless boat that can tip over at any moment when things get wild, but from your position of inner peace.

Laughing is good for your mind and your body – here's what the research  shows

When we are kids, we laugh a lot. Children laugh dozens of times a day, and they laugh at small things and at big things, they laugh at silly jokes and serious things. But as we become adults, it is much more difficult to laugh so easily. Do you laugh too little in your life? Should you remember how you used to laugh before, as a child?

Laughter has a lot of benefits. It can reduce your blood pressure. It’s a great way to relax, not just on a purely emotional level, but also physically. Laughter contributes to the release of hormones and neurotransmitters that are good for our health: if we are laughing it means that all is well.

In addition to this, laughing has a social function. It helps us feel more at ease around new people and also connects us with others. Laughing together is great for bonding, no matter the situation.

Sometimes, we might feel like there is not much cause to laugh. Life can be tough. Maybe we just want to appear somber to be taken seriously. But laughter is, if not the best medicine, a good support to have there for tough times and for good times as well. Allow yourself to laugh as you used to, full belly laughs, that you don’t have to stifle.

Cultivate situations that promote laughter in your life. Watch funny films and videos, read funny articles and book. Be silly with your friends, make jokes and laugh at jokes. Make a conscious effort to include things, people, and events that make you chuckle and laugh in your daily life.

A good idea is to give yourself permission to play. Play is a natural activity that promotes a lot of laughter, whether it’s through video games, outdoor games, or board games. Discover what you like to play and have fun with it!

Laughter comes from being with others. Try to see your friends more often. Hang out with family members that are nice to be around, with whom you can make have fun, laugh, and enjoy yourself. Give your time to those who can share your laughter.

More than anything, learn to cultivate humor. Don’t take yourself so seriously. Laugh at your mistakes and learn to laugh at yourself. You don’t have to be mean, just a little sillier than you would be otherwise. When you do, you will be surprised by the changes you will see in your life.

Low back pain is a common ailment, but could be remedied by practicing various movement arts. Researchers at Atlantic University Florida found that if we use our body and mind at the same time, back pain can be reduced.

During the study, the effect of three so-called mind-body exercises was examined. This included yoga, tai chi (a Chinese art of movement with moderately intensive movements and mindfulness) and qi gong (a Chinese meditative therapy that makes us more aware of the body through repetitive movements).

Effects

The researchers noted that exercises from the various movement arts could reduce symptoms such as low back pain. And not only that: the mobility of the body also increased and it had a positive effect on depression and anxiety.

Strong mind

According to the researchers, the three movement arts not only strengthened the body, but also the mind. This is a hopeful conclusion for people with chronic back pain, since they often suffer from poor mental health along with their back problems.
