Finding Peace of Mind: 11 Steps to Achieve Inner Harmony

The cause of everything is constant problems, various domestic harassment, irritation from people and situations that get out of control. Moments of spiritual harmony in our world are extremely rare. 

Let's figure out how to find peace of mind in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. 

Peace of mind is a state in which a person is in harmonious contact with the surrounding space and, above all, with his person. It is very difficult for many to achieve this, they daily experience doubts and anxiety. 

For such people, internal balance is an unsustainable luxury.  Therefore, the number of those looking for ways to find peace in the soul and keep it longer is increasing. 

Everyone can understand the secret to balancing oneself. It is enough to understand that everything is determined by your choice,  and not by external circumstances. 

You choose how you think, and from what angle you look at the situation. So, what needs to be done so that peace of mind turns from an unusual rare condition into a typical one for you? 

How To Find Peace of Mind: 11 Steps 

Nothing can be achieved in this life without hard work. And no one will bring you peace of mind on a silver platter, however, there are several rules, after which, it will be much easier to find peace of mind. 

1) Resist Passivity

Our world is imperfect and cruel! Hunger, war, cold, poverty, epidemics, natural disasters, dictators, maniacs – these misfortunes have no end. Can you change all this? 

And from the fact that you will bring yourself into suicidal depression, and the concern that children in Africa are starving, will these children help themselves a  lot? Learn how to filter out negative information, especially when you can't change anything. 

"To maintain peace of mind, one should also avoid condemning  others in every possible way." Pastor Seraphim Sarov (1833). 

2) Think Positively 

Despite all the failures and difficulties, you should learn to see (the positive moments) in the little things. Conclusions "I am the most beautiful", "I will be fine", "I will solve this problem", "I will be happy" and the like should become permanent residents in your head. 

3) Move From Useless Experiments To Work 

If you take all the problems of humanity seriously, you will find peace of mind only by eliminating them. Likes and reposts on  Facebook, crying over, the image of a homeless cat has never benefited anyone. 

Instead of grumbling and fluttering in front of the computer or TV, it is better to volunteer - choosing a suitable institution today is not a problem. If you can't devote enough time to this, then financial aid charity is also a good solution. 

4) Do Not Take More Than You Can Afford 

fatigue is one of the main causes of stress. Turning yourself into a  donkey, hanging with trunks with problems and tasks, you risk falling dead halfway. 

5) Do not Get Involved in Unnecessary Arguments 

Do you remember the tale of the old man who was asked how he could live until he was a hundred years old and in good health? "I  never argued with anyone," he replies. 

To the opponent's shout:  "But it's impossible!" he calmly replied: "You are right." Follow suit.  Sometimes the truth breeds disagreement, but more often - a  harbinger of a heart attack. 

6) Do Not Worry or Delay 

Most of you are probably familiar with this situation:  you have an important meeting, but you cannot correctly calculate the time of preparations, and now you walk around the apartment in a panic and feel nervous because you ruined everything;  

You reached the end of the report yesterday, and now you are worried that a  sleepless night will not help you meet the deadline. Discipline,  organization, schedules and lists will help you find peace of mind. 

7) Get Rid Of Envy, Suspicion, Or Other Destructive Actions 

Negative thoughts and emotions create nothing. Moreover, the energy spent on anger, envy gossip, schadenfreude, quarrels, etc.,  can direct it to something useful.

8) Find a Place in Your Life For Physical Activity 

An indispensable element in the life of every happy and successful person. Without active exercise, you will be just a fat and boring loser. 

9) Live a Fun And Colorful Life 

People who are constantly busy with something, or planning something, do not have much time for bad news, torment and anxiety that destroys peace of mind. 

10) Back Here and Now 

Many negative emotions, such as fear, guilt and resentment, take us away from reality. We constantly experience unpleasant events in the past or expected in the future. However, this does not allow us to enjoy the present moment. Need to return to reality. Start to realize that in "Here and Now" we have all the resources to deal with anxiety and find a solution to how to act in a future situation or let go of fears associated with the past.
