Struggling
Struggling?
Go to a quiet place, but not to think.
Do just the opposite. Create a “POP,” (Piece Of Peace). These are intentional, momentary breaks from the busy mind streams. Here’s how you do it.
Sit still and look around for brief moments. Observe a tree or the sky. If you are indoors, observe the space around you — not the furniture, but the air that surrounds you.
Listen for the faintest sounds for a few seconds. Touch and feel something nearby while observing it.
Thinking about problems is not the solution. The mind inflates, exaggerates, and magnifies your issues.
Make an effort to observe the activity of your mind, instead of following the dialogue.
The answer to your challenges will come when you quiet the mind. You will likely find clarity. You might even see solutions.
Your problems can reduce from mountains, to speed bumps.
Give it a try and have faith in this new way of finding peace.
