Shutting out the world is as important as welcoming diversity in life. You need to find peace inside at times.
Take a moment to just close everything out and focus on simply nothing. Bring yourself back to a place where there was less energy, less chaos and more peace.
I took my son away for just under 24 hours to my cousins farm last weekend. While things were going on around us, faster than I could do much about, I felt the need to find some peace. Just being with a few that loved us for who we were, without question gave me the start to a clean, white sheet. Where my focus became clear and my thoughts less scattered.
I know we all can't get away to a place that we think will bring us peace but perhaps we need to start learning to bring it to us.
Close your eyes. Start with a white blank sheet. Picture it. Then, take a moment to reflect on times in your life where you've had good thoughts. Listen to your heart beat & your breath. Make a choice to breathe slower. Shut out the noise around you and focus on nothing other than how you are feeling.
This is what I do sometimes when I can't get away. It is a way of reflecting on what's going on and where I'm going. It might actually help you too. Just a thought..
I'm sitting here in front of my computer screen, with a slight grin and my head tilted to the side. At this moment, I found a little peace. Why? As I typed that entire process, I lived it too.
