Finding Inner Peace

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid"(John 14:27).

20 Tips for inner peace.

1.Learn to let go of the past.

2.Live for today.

3.Don’t sweat the little things, and 99% of everything is little if you view it that way.

4.Find quiet time for yourself every single day without fail. You deserve it.

5.Raise your awareness level. Look at flowers, the sunset, your kids at play…

6.Spend time with peaceful people in peaceful places.

7.Eliminate every stressor that you possibly can from your life.

8.Find something that you enjoy doing and do it, even if you think you may not look dignified while you do it.

9.Laugh. A lot, every day.

10.Count your blessings every night before you go to sleep.

11.Find some grass and sit in it. Lean your back against a tree. Listen to the birds singing and daydream.

12.Read peaceful books, listen to peaceful music and play peaceful games.

13.Learn, for once and for all, that no one can disturb your peace unless you allow them to.

14.Forget trying to control others, it will never work.

15.Establish a dialogue with God. Talk to the Creator and listen for the reply.

16.Tell every single person that you care about how you feel.

17.Forgive any and every one who has ever hurt you.

18.Let go of expectations.

19.Stop and think before you talk. You will spend a lot less time having to eat your words.

20.Make today be the best day possible , and the future will take care of itself one day at a time.

Peace be with you!

  2. Hi David,
    I am sorry for your loss. Even though we will see our loved ones when we die, that doesn't help us to grieve any less. I am sure that your Sue will always be with you even though you do not see her now.
    Peace be with you,
    Sue
