Living with Serenity!
What is Serenity? I have one definition that says “free from stress and negative emotion”. I lke that one. Living with a sense of serenity and happiness is probably a goal that just about anyone would desire. Sometimes we are so busy that it seems impossible to slow down enough to really enjoy what life has to offer. I read in a book entitled ”LIving the Serenity Prayer” by Jeanett Gardner Littleton and James Stuar Bell , about a group of people who used the popular “Serenity Prayer” to help them live life in a fuller way.
I love the idea of people using “techniques” and “reminders” to live a better life. Now True, I know you don’t have to have a catalyst to be happy. But, what is wrong with using something that works? Catalysts or structured methods help to keep us on track, to be congruent, to remind us who we really are. I know that happiness and serenity is an “inside job”. The reason for the catalyst is not the reason we become happy and live with with serenity. The reason for the catalyst is to remind us who we are, to remind us that we have the choice, the choice to have serenity and happiness.
3 Methods to Cultivate Serenity
-
Take 5 to 15 minutes at the beginning and the end of each day to focus on how you want to feel. Not what makes you feel that way, but the feeling itself. Explore the feeling of serenity. Make it a part of your life.
-
On extremely busy days, take at least a 10 -15 minute break every 2 hours. Daydream about what makes you feel happy, then feel the serenity permeate through your body.
-
Take time at least once a week to be in nature. Feel the serenity that is naturally there. Enjoy it. Bathe in it.
Happy Manifesting,
