For a long time I did not ask myself this question, but now it takes up a considerable part of my time. I want to discuss this topic openly. The basis of any achievement is inner harmony. You need to have something to rely on. At any moment a person can deviate from the chosen path if he does not have reliable internal support. You need to find it or create it. Need to take it for starting point yours current situation. Everything you have, including your level of health, finances, and satisfaction with your life. It is necessary to take into account as many aspects as possible. And decide what you live for. You can be a creator, or you can be a layman. It doesn't matter. The main thing is that you like your life and have joy in your soul when you meet every new day. You need to find support in life, even if you have nothing. This support can be your cherished dream, it can be a loved one or your increasing income, which gives you a new influx of inspiration to do what you love. Now let's think about why many people go astray from their chosen path and roll back? After all, they have already achieved some success, and it is likely that with due persistence they would eventually achieve desired result. But they retreated, deciding for themselves that this was either unrealistic or impossible for them to do personally. This is because they are not satisfied with the speed at which they are moving forward. All dreams and desires, goals are actually achieved much slower than we initially assume. In such a situation, it can be very difficult to force yourself to continue when you see scanty results of your actions or do not see them at all. Motivation and enthusiasm quickly fade, and willpower alone won't get you far. There are millions of temptations to give up everything or leave it as it is. The concept of success is very interesting. You achieve success whenever you make some progress. While you are growing, while your health, results in sports or financial well-being, even if it’s tiny, it means that you have achieved success. And oddly enough, the longer you stay true to your chosen path, the faster your results begin to increase. But as soon as you stop achieving even this meager amount, you doom yourself to failure. You become a failure. It seems to you that you won’t lose anything if you stop, because you haven’t really achieved anything. But that's not true. You will lose the opportunity to succeed, you will waste all your efforts and create a gaping hole in your soul from which the vibes of your failure will ooze.

It turns out that either a person is successful because he does not stop trying and works every day according to the plan. It doesn’t matter whether he succeeds in what he does or not, it doesn’t matter whether he makes progress or not. He is still successful because he is moving towards success, and sooner or later he will start to succeed. Either he is a loser, because every day he wastes brings him closer to the point of no return, after which it will be pointless to change anything.

So here it is peace of mind a person when he clearly knows where he started and what he has achieved. When he does not look at other, more successful comrades, but WORKS BY HIMSELF, FOR HIMSELF, FOR HIMSELF, AND FOR HIS OWN PLEASURE. You need to sit down and write down anywhere everything you have on your this moment and what you are going to develop. Time will pass and you will check to see if you are making progress. That's all you need. There is no need to compare yourself with others - this will only make things worse and undermine your self-esteem. You need to become self-sufficient and not look at anyone. Only such people deserve to become successful, and oddly enough, in the end they succeed. And in addition to this, they receive reliable inner rod And support at a difficult moment. You only need to start from their results. It is very important.

The true secret to achieving peace of mind is that it is determined not by external circumstances, but by your choices. Choosing a way to look at situations and a way of thinking.

1. live in the present.
You cannot return the past, and the future depends on what you think and do at the moment. So pay attention to the present, focus on doing your best in everything you do, and just live. Don't let life pass you by because you live in the past or the future.
2. meditate.
Meditation teaches you mental and physical discipline, as well as emotional self-control. It's easy and enjoyable, and this is one of the most powerful self-development tools that you can use right now!

3. express gratitude.
Express gratitude for all the “Good” and all the “bad”, for all that you experience, learn and adopt. Express gratitude for everything that the future holds for you. Let yourself be enveloped in the warmth and light of gratitude.

4. let go of your usual way of looking at things, look at the world from a different angle. Your point of view is not “the Law”, but only one of many points of view. The way you view things may be causing you stress. Look at the world with an unrestricted view.

5. know that “this too shall pass.”
Change is a part of life. Be calm and patient - let everything happen naturally and organically. Develop the courage that allows you to focus on the results you want rather than the problem.

6. simplify your life.
Simplicity brings inner peace - thanks to the fact that you direct your energy correctly. Get rid of everything you don't need, including connections and friendships that don't bring you anything good. Focus on what's important to you. Don't overload yourself with too many things, tasks and information. Keep one or two goals that are most important to you.

7. smile.
A smile has the power to open doors, turn a “no” into a “yes” and instantly change the mood (both yours and those around you. Smile in the mirror. Smile at family members, co-workers, everyone who catches your eye. A smile radiates the energy of love - and What you send is what you receive. It is impossible to smile sincerely and at the same time feel anger, sadness, fear or envy. When you smile, you can only feel happiness and peace.

8. Bring the work you start to its logical end.
Complete the circle. Unfinished business (unforgiveness, unspoken words, unfinished projects and tasks) is a heavy burden on your consciousness, whether you feel it or not. Every unfinished task takes energy away from the present.

9. Be true to yourself.
Love yourself. Make your dreams come true and express yourself. Find your purpose and fulfill it.

10. don't worry.
How much time do you spend worrying about what "could happen"? And what actually happened (and ruined your life? Little, if not nothing at all... right? Focus on what you want, not what you don't want.

11. take care of your health.
Take care of your body: do physical exercise, play sport games, eat right and get enough sleep. Increase your energy with daily exercise and monitor your well-being.

12. morning is wiser than evening.
Sometimes, when you are overwhelmed with problems, falling asleep is not possible. First of all, do your best to physically fix the problem. Only if nothing can be done, turn to an energy solution to the problem. Visualize the ideal state of things (in which the problem does not exist) until the problem disappears on its own or until a solution comes to you.

13. In your speech, adhere to the principles of Sufism.
This ancient tradition stipulates that you should only say something if: 1) it is true, 2) it is necessary, and 3 it is kind words. Attention! Just in case anything you have to say doesn't meet these criteria, don't say it.

14. Use the power off button.
Avoid information and sensory overload. Turn off the TV, smartphone, tablet, laptop, computer, mp3 player (unless you are listening to audio recordings for meditation or relaxation. Learn to simply “Be” without necessarily “doing” anything).

15. don't do everything at the same time.
Do one thing and do it well. Take a holistic approach in everything and do your best.

16. start with the most difficult.
Don't put things off until later. A large number of mental and emotional energy is wasted due to fear of doing things we don't want to do - tiring, unpleasant, difficult or scary. Deal with them - only properly, in the best possible way. And then move on to simple matters.

17. maintain balance.
Promote success and inner peace by maintaining balance in your life.

18. Cross money off your list of priorities. Strive to be a person who is rich in the sense of relationships, not material goods.

19. If you drive more quietly, you will go further.
Enjoy this journey called Life. Everything will happen when the time comes. Pay attention to every moment of life and appreciate it. What's the hurry? Once you achieve your goal, new tasks and problems will certainly appear.

20. use your imagination. Building the life of your dreams begins in your imagination. This is where you take the canvas and paints and paint the life you want most!

In this bustle of life, we often simply lack peace. Some people are simply very impressionable and nervous all the time, others are overcome by problems and difficulties, bad thoughts.

Stop, take a breath, look around, it's time to gain awareness in this race of life.

I dare to give you some tips on how to find peace in your soul, all of them are quite simple and easy to follow.

1. Give - receive!

If any difficulties have appeared in your life and it seems to you that the whole world is against you, do not cry and do not suffer. Find another person who needs help and do what you can to solve their problems.

2. Don’t demand and learn to forgive!

Don’t get angry, forget about all your complaints, try not to get involved in quarrels and disputes.

3. Don't get upset over trifles!

Life is largely determined by the internal state of a person. If his soul is dark and empty, then it will be sad, if it is good and clear, then it will be rosy and full of prospects.

4. Look at life differently!

Don't snap, don't get defensive, don't turn into modern "zombies" or "robots" who only think about how bad their life is. Remember that all your thoughts are material. Make only good wishes, and this will certainly affect your mood and your reality.

5. Don't make yourself a victim!

Finally, free yourself from the illusion that you are driven into a corner by some unfavorable circumstances or the aggression of others. Your life is in your hands!

6. Don't judge!

At least for a day or two, don’t criticize anyone.

7. Live in the moment!

Rejoice in what is happening to you right now. Are you sitting at the computer? Great! Would you like some tea? Wonderful! Pour and drink. Don't project yours negative thoughts for the future.

8. Stop playing and pretending!

There is no need to deceive anyone. Cry when you feel like crying and laugh when you really feel funny. Finally, take off your mask and show yourself to others as the person you really are.

9. Do what you want, not others

Stop acting on someone else's orders, listen to yourself and understand what you really want.

10. Know and love yourself!

Communicate alone with yourself, look for the motives of your actions and desires. Don't judge or criticize yourself. After all, you are the person you are, and that’s wonderful.

11. Do exercises!

  • Inhale, count to 4 and exhale smoothly.
  • Write down your thoughts and 3 best life events on paper.
  • Sit on the porch or on a bench and just relax, contemplate and look for positive and beautiful moments in the space around you.
  • Imagine yourself floating above the ground in a transparent protective bubble.
  • Talk to your inner self.
  • Give your head a massage.

Even these simple exercises will help you take your mind off your problems, calm down and think positively.

12. Meditate!
Solitude and silence, contemplation of nature is one of the best ways to find peace of mind and harmony, use it.

13. Don’t let bad thoughts “come”!

Get rid of anything that might upset you. Use the principle of substitution. Do you have a bad thought? Urgently find something positive that will crowd out your bad thoughts. Fill the space around you with joy and positivity.

14. Listen to calm music!

It will help you relax and slow down your thoughts.

15. Look at the fire of candles or fireplace!

He gives you an inner smile and the energy of magical warmth; it is simply mesmerizing.

In addition to all of the above, you can listen to birdsong and the sounds of rain, smell fresh flowers, contemplate the starry sky and falling snow, relax, do yoga, take a bath with incense, share smiles and love.

Remember that the great Samurai always won thanks to their inner peace and the ability to see beauty in their surroundings. According to them, only those who are looking for it in panic and running around will not be able to find a way out of the labyrinth. Those who are internally calm will always see from above both the labyrinth itself and the exit from it.

I wish you happiness and peace of mind!

With love to you, In search of yourself.

Nowadays, people live very unsettled lives, which is due to various negative realities of a political, economic and social nature. Added to this is a powerful flow of negative information that falls on people from television screens, from Internet news sites and newspaper pages.

Modern medicine is often unable to relieve stress. She is not able to cope with mental and physical disorders, various diseases that are caused by disturbances in mental balance due to negative emotions, anxiety, worry, fear, despair, etc.

Such emotions have a destructive effect on human body at the cellular level, deplete it vitality, lead to premature aging.

Insomnia and loss of strength, hypertension and diabetes, heart and stomach diseases, cancer - these are far from full list those serious illnesses, the main cause of which can be stressful conditions in the body that arise as a result of such harmful emotions.

Plato once said: “The greatest mistake of doctors is that they try to cure a man’s body without trying to cure his soul; however, the soul and body are one and cannot be treated separately!”

Centuries, even millennia, have passed, but this saying of the great philosopher of antiquity remains true today. In modern living conditions, the problem of psychological support for people, protecting their psyche from negative emotions has become extremely relevant.

How to achieve inner harmony and peace of mind

  1. Recognize your NOT perfection and the right to make mistakes. Excessive ambition and self-demandingness not only disturb mental balance, but also force a person to be in constant stress. Take mistakes you make as life lessons and an opportunity to gain valuable experience.
  2. Live here and now. This will help get rid of imaginary fears associated with the future. Often a person worries about what might happen and forgets that it may NOT happen. Focus your attention on the present and solve problems as they arise.
  3. Learn to say NO. Stop shifting other people's problems onto yourself, and your life will become much simpler and more harmonious.
  4. Build internal boundaries. The loss of your peace of mind may be associated with worries about another person, or taking on his responsibilities. Don’t let others impose the rules of the game on you, and let’s clearly understand the boundaries of what is permitted in communicating with you.
  5. Don't keep all your experiences to yourself. An excellent psychological technique to get rid of loss of calm is to say out loud what is bothering you. By putting your feelings into words, you will come to the conclusion that things are not as bad as you thought. Don't be alone with your experiences and problems. Share them with a loved one who will understand and help.
  6. Give vent to your emotions regularly. Don't keep everything that has accumulated to yourself. Throw out the negativity and you will feel much better. Find out the 5 best ways to deal with stress and use them.
  7. Learn to forgive and forget. Sometimes this is not as easy to do as it seems at first glance. If you are unable to cope with the offense on your own, seek help from a psychologist.
  8. Focus on the end result, and perceive temporary difficulties as steps towards realizing your goal.

And no matter what happens to you, don’t take anything to heart. Few things in the world remain important for long.

Erich Maria Remarque " Triumphal Arch" ---

If you get caught in the rain, you can learn a useful lesson from it. If it starts raining unexpectedly, you don't want to get wet, so you run down the street towards your house. But when you reach home, you notice that you are still wet. If you decide from the very beginning not to speed up your pace, you will get wet, but you will not fuss. The same should be done in other similar circumstances.

Yamamoto Tsunetomo - Hagakure. Samurai Book


Tomorrow will be what it should be

and nothing will happen that should not happen -

don't fuss.

If there is no peace within us, it is useless to look for it outside.

Unburdened with worries -
enjoys life.
He is not happy when he finds it,
when losing he is not sad, because he knows
that fate is not constant.
When we are not bound by things,
Serenity is fully experienced.
If the body does not rest from tension,
it wears out.
If the spirit is always in worries,
he fades.

Chuang Tzu ---

If you throw a stick to a dog, it will look at the stick. And if you throw a stick to a lion, he will, without looking up, look at the thrower. This is a formal phrase that was said during debates in ancient China, if the interlocutor began to cling to words and stopped seeing the main thing.

As I breathe in, I calm my body and mind.
As I exhale, I smile.
Being in the present moment, I know that this moment is amazing!

Allow yourself to breathe deeply and don’t force yourself into limits.

Strength belongs to those who believe in their own strength.

Develop the habit of monitoring your mental-emotional state through self-observation. It is good to regularly ask yourself: “Am I calm at this moment?” is a question that is useful to ask yourself regularly. You can also ask: “What is happening inside me at the moment?”

Eckhart Tolle

Freedom is freedom from worry. Once you understand that you cannot influence the results, ignore your desires and fears. Let them come and go. Don't feed them with interest and attention. In reality, things are done to you, not by you.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

The calmer and more balanced a person is, the more powerful his potential and the greater will be his success in good and worthy deeds. Equanimity of mind is one of the greatest treasures of wisdom.

1. Don’t interfere in other people’s problems

Many women create a lot of problems for themselves when they interfere in other people's affairs. At such moments, they are convinced that they are doing the right thing by trying to help and advise. They can often criticize and try to guide others on the right path. But such communication is a denial of individuality, that is, God. After all, He created each of us unique. It must be remembered that all people act as their divine essence tells them. Don't worry about others - love yourself and take care of yourself!

2. You need to be able to forget and forgive

The most effective way To achieve a woman's peace of mind is the ability to forget grievances and forgive them. Often women carry inside themselves negative feelings to people who once offended them. Constant dissatisfaction only fuels such grievances, which leads to repetition of people's bad attitudes. You need to believe in God's justice by allowing him to judge the actions of people who have hurt you. You shouldn't waste your life on trifles. Learn to forgive and look only forward!

3. Don't seek public recognition

There is no need to show your selfishness in everything, pursuing only personal gain. There is no one perfect in this world. Don't expect recognition from others. Better believe in yourself. Other people's recognition and encouragement do not last long. Always remember sincerity and morality when performing your duties. Everything else is the will of God.

4. When changing the world, start with yourself

Don't try to change it alone the world. No one has ever succeeded in doing this. Changes need to start with yourself, with self-knowledge and self-development. In this case, the unfriendly environment will become harmonious and pleasant for you.

5. What cannot be changed must be accepted

The best way to turn disadvantages into strengths is acceptance. Every day a woman faces irritation, inconvenience and negative circumstances that are beyond her control. You need to learn to accept such manifestations in your address. If God willed it this way, then this is how it should be. Divine logic is beyond our understanding. You need to believe in it and become stronger and more tolerant.

6. You need to practice meditation regularly

Meditations are the best way to free the mind from thoughts. This gives the highest state of peace of mind. Daily meditation for 30 minutes allows you to maintain calm throughout the rest of the day. This increases productivity and allows you to fully enjoy life.

The main troublemakers

1) Take a deep breath for one-two-three-four, hold your breath for the same period, then exhale just as smoothly.
2) Take a pen and write down your thoughts on paper.
3) Recognize that life is complicated.
4) Write down three of your most successful events in life.
5) Tell a friend or loved one what he or she means to you.
6) Sit on the porch and do nothing. Promise yourself to do this more often.
7) Give yourself permission to just be lazy for a while.
8) Look at the clouds for a few minutes.
9) Fly over your life in your imagination.
10) Unfocus your gaze and simply notice with your peripheral vision everything that is happening around you for a few minutes.
11) Give a few coins to charity.
12) Imagine that you are inside a transparent protective bubble that protects you.
13) Place your hand on your heart and feel how it beats. This is cool.
14) Promise yourself that no matter what you will maintain a positive attitude until the end of the day.
15) Be grateful that you don't always get what you want.

Mental balance is not easy. Your mind controls your thinking, influencing (sometimes destructively) what you say or feel. You have to protect yourself by conducting constant internal dialogue with your mind. And it forces you to hear only what you want to hear, which is sometimes good for concentration, but does not always guarantee that bad things won't come back again. The mind controls many things, and although it appears immaterial, it is very real. And it influences every judgment - it will be what your thoughts are. The search for mental balance is as difficult and dangerous as trying to find a needle in a haystack. You don’t know which edge to approach or how to protect yourself from an injection in the arm. Threats are like the thorns of a beautiful rose, as beautiful as they are dangerous.

Steps

    Find yourself. This is difficult to do when there are tempting opportunities on all sides to relax and calm the mind. Work is stressful, and it can strain you mentally to find ways to accomplish tasks and goals for the coming weeks and even years. Time is usually the most stressful thing, although there are also many little things to remember that cannot be forgotten. Sometimes you want to run away from it, that is, life is perceived as a disaster.

    Take some time to relax. Usually the best solution is to take a week off or at least a day off to unwind with a variety of spa treatments while having gourmet delicacies on hand. Do your best to clear your mind by listening to your favorite music or visiting relatives. The output should be used to balance the operating voltage with something good. For a better future, find an opportunity to be in peace for a day without worrying about your next work assignment. To relieve stress, you should clear your mind of the slightest thoughts about work. The only thing you need to strive for is a sense of peace.

    Get a general assessment of your state of mind: peace and feelings. Peace is the calm of the ocean, the sun and moon coming together to create everything that makes us see the clouds and the endless gradations of colors that are used to color the world we see. The mental world is the sensory rhythm within the heart while listening to music; this is a complex combination that can change us (in this case, favorite music can cause relaxation). In this state, after some time, we find ourselves alone, wondering how we got here and what could change our lives so dramatically. At any age, we keep within us a small part of the child living in our hearts. But over the years and experience, we increasingly lose our former childhood gullibility. Stress is pressure environment, in which we grow, and mental stress is the impact on our feelings. To regain peace, you need to prepare. Drink a cup of coffee, relax and let your mind wander into the realm of fantasy. Remember, what we feel and what we doubt is changeable, but that is a topic for another day.

    Try not to let money and time become a stressor. We worry about time and worry about a thousand little things, allowing idealism to run rampant. What leaves a mark on the consciousness is in the heart, and the mind is just a small weakness necessary for work. Do you find it difficult to find time between jobs? Much depends on the company and position (number of working hours, pay, conditions, etc.), and we are accustomed to the fact that time is money. The constant need to pay rent, buy food and provide basic necessities causes stress for many. The desire to impress others also adds to the anxiety. Try to take it easy. Don't worry, problems may still find you, but you are capable of overcoming them. You can survive at school, at work and in life in general.

    Relieve stress: Do what you love. IN under stress you are constantly worried about work and tomorrow, and your blood pressure is rising, which cannot but affect physical health, as well as on mental and emotional condition. Also, in addition to work, you need to worry about social life. Soothing emotions with the help of friends will not affect mental stress. Moreover, it may make the situation even worse. Try to find a hobby that makes you truly passionate about it. Remember to take small steps. Hobbies help, but this is not an instant transformation after the Apocalypse.

  1. Plans: tear it up and throw it away. This day or week is completely yours. Do not hurry. The phrase is a hackneyed one, but patience is the cure for stress. Lack of mental peace is distressing and even destructive. And this condition is caused not only by stress. Restless thoughts do not only arise due to external circumstances, internal imbalance and doubts also add fuel to the fire. If you start planning something, you can cause even more stress, as if you are jinxing yourself. Therefore, now it is better to throw away all plans and focus only on yourself. You just need to love yourself more. It seems selfish, but that's where you need to start. You need to accept that the world around you is not ideal, and even love is not ideal. Perfection is only an image behind which reality is hidden. Perfection is a myth, and the condition of each person is itself perfection. We just don't see it behind many masks. The place of our life is a world filled with the struggle of hatred and love, life and death, beginning and end. In old age and in youth, one must see the countless shades of gray between black and white. War and Peace. What is war if there is no peace? Our mind is in a constant state of war of thoughts and emotions that enter our heart and cause feelings. The mental world is what we accept in our lives. Accepting some things may not always be good, but every choice will have consequences that we may not even realize.

    • Everyone calms down differently, but it is very effective to lie down and relax. You can take a nap or listen to soft music to calm your thoughts.
    • If the cause of anxiety is related to studying, completing assignments, or homework- your responsibility. Teachers usually (but not always) expect maturity from you. They want to see progress, they want to make sure that you did your best and weren't lazy because the task seemed boring. In any case, you can ask for help after class. Perhaps the teacher can give good advice or a hint to follow homework for tomorrow.
    • Don't worry, no one is pushing you. The human mind contains many pleasant surprises that are fun to discover.
    • Live in the present, allow yourself to feel freedom.

    Warnings

    • Walking along thin ice, use caution. Remember to take responsibility for your choices and don't forget about your work.
    • Each person is individual, and you should not act like someone else. Be yourself, whoever you are. Don't pay too much attention to what other people say, but if it's work-related, make your actions as professional as possible.
    • Act boldly and don't let your feelings control your thinking.

To answer the question of how to find peace of mind, we first need to understand why we lose it. The simplest thing that comes to mind is our feelings: love, hatred, envy, fear, despair due to unfulfilled hopes, rejection of something, guilt, shame. There are so many things that can throw us out of balance... But in addition to internal vibrations, we are also influenced by external stimuli: we didn’t get enough sleep, didn’t dress for the weather, ate something wrong, slipped on the way to work, received a reprimand from our superiors - and now the world begins to turn dark, and a real storm arises in our souls, preventing us from thinking and feeling rationally , exist.

Do you want to be in harmony with yourself? Live in peace with your body: try to get enough sleep, treat yourself to your favorite foods from time to time, don’t wear things that pinch or rub, don’t torture yourself and you will take a huge step towards finding peace of mind.

Remember how happy we were as children? The golden time, when the grass was taller than us, and the clouds seemed like cotton candy, when our parents did not criticize our way of life, but carried us in their arms. We were loved, pitied, we were the center of the universe. Try to return yourself to this blissful time, and you will see how your soul will become light and calm. You can feel like a child both in playing with other children and in playing with yourself. For example, what is stopping you during an illness from not rushing to work in order to curry favor with your superiors, but picking up your favorite book, putting a pillow under your head and demanding breakfast, lunch and dinner from your family, and that’s it – to bed?

It’s not for nothing that the house is called a fortress. It allows you to hide from external troubles, you can take a break from annoying situations, strangers, work problems. Make your home cozy and it will fill you with positive energy every evening.

Problems in the family and at work are one of the most common causes of loss of mental balance. Troubles on two fronts at once can completely lead a person to depression. To avoid this, try to solve problems as they arise. Do not accumulate irritation to the point where it hits you with its full weight. Do you think that your superiors do not value you as a specialist? Try to prove your professional worth - not only in words, but also in deeds. They still don’t want to notice you? Resign yourself, wait for a favorable moment that will allow you to prove your professional suitability, or look for a new job.

Unfortunately, in life there are often situations that cannot be corrected immediately. Therefore, you need to learn: on the one hand, patience, and on the other, the ability to radically change your life. Hope for the best, chance, fate, God is also a good way to come to terms with what you cannot change or cannot change now.

The time constant of a problem is important for understanding how to work with it. If you don’t know how to cook, that’s one thing, you can always learn, but if you have no one to cook for, then... you’ll have to take yourself seriously. Unrequited love, like death loved one, is capable of pulling the rug out from under anyone’s feet.

The feelings of other people, like their lives, are not subject to us. You need to understand this, come to terms with this structure of the world and not torment yourself in vain. Yes, it is terribly difficult when loved ones leave, and it is unbearably bitter to know that you are not loved, but... Every person has something more valuable than those around him: this is himself.

Self-love can work wonders. Healthy egoism, interest in your own self and the ability to appreciate what you have are the foundations on which you can form a sense of mental balance and peace. See how easy it works:

  • Abandoned by your loved one? It’s not scary - now we can live for our own pleasure.
  • Is a colleague playing tricks on us? Amazing! There will be something to do at work, besides boring projects!
  • Did your cousin buy a new foreign car? There is a reason to celebrate this matter and think about how to make money for... two foreign cars!
  • Can't reset excess weight? No problem! Good man there must be a lot!
The more of us we have, the calmer we live. It has been scientifically proven that people who depend on their own opinions are much less upset over trifles than those who look around and wait for the assessment of others. Peace of mind is an internal state of happiness that you give to yourself.

Remember a simple thing: as soon as something throws you off balance, start acting. If it is possible to immediately eliminate the irritant, eliminate it; no, put off solving the problem for a while and, perhaps, it will resolve itself. Have you encountered something out of the ordinary? Give free rein to your emotions. Don't hold back your tears, anger, despair. Do you feel like you can't cope alone? Go to your friends and family. Just go outside, sit on a bench in the park and talk to a completely stranger. A feeling of novelty, an act that you are doing for the first time in your life, will help you discover an unexpected side of yourself, one in which the problems that have arisen may turn out to be completely insignificant.

You can try to remove mental heaviness... with spiritual joys. Remember what you like most and do it as soon as possible. Dizzying shopping, a trip to the cinema for the long-awaited premiere, a fishing trip with friends, playing your favorite computer game– any little things can become a starting point for finding peace of mind.
