10 Simple Ways to Restore Your Inner Peace-from The Sedona Method

 

Beyond wealth, beyond autonomy, even beyond happiness, if you have inner peace you can feel that all is right with the world. It’s the place where nothing can bring you down; make you angry or cause you harm, because inside you are all right.

And it’s the place so many of us need now, more than ever.

We don’t have to tell you that stress is rampant all around us, and our lives are getting increasingly hectic, rather than simple. You probably already feel it, and live it.

But amidst all the chaos, inside you can have peace.

“Inner peace is natural to each and every one of us,” says Hale Dwoskin, CEO and director of training of Sedona Training Associates. “Yet most of us keep ourselves so busy and so externally focused we don’t realize that right within us is the peace and happiness we are trying to create with our external action.”

To restore your inner peace, or achieve it in the first place, all you have to do is realize that you are separate from your thoughts. And when your thoughts start to go toward chaos — bills, arguments, projects at work, errands to run — you can let them go, quickly, by using The Sedona Method.

“In this moment could you allow yourself to notice that the peace you are looking for is already right within you? Now as best you can, could you welcome this peace that you are?” Dwoskin asks. “Could you simply let go and “be” just for this moment … the more you allow yourself to let go and be moment to moment, the more you won’t notice both inner and outer peace — and the more you will reap the benefits of allowing this peace to support you and enliven you.”

Releasing with The Sedona Method is actually one of the simplest, fastest and most direct ways of restoring inner peace, because it instantly frees you from the thoughts that are weighing you down. And we all know it’s our thoughts that keep us up at night, make us feel anxious and panicked, and sometimes make it hard to even smile.

When you let go of that negativity, you are free to feel peaceful. Realize you can feel that way at any time, and ALL the time, because peace is always at your core.

Now, there are other methods, too, that can help you get to that place of inner peace we all crave. Along with using The Sedona Method, the following simple pleasures will also help you to find calm and balance in an otherwise hectic world, so we recommend you do them all, and do them often.

1. Smile and, even better, laugh
2. Pet an animal
3. Meditate
4. Watch children at play (and join in)
5. Spend time in nature
6. Watch the sun rise or set
7. Take a deep breath, then another, and another
8. Do something kind for someone
9. Listen to music you love
10. Do some yoga or other gentle exercise (stretching, Tai Chi, etc.)

TED Talk Thursday – Jeremy Rifkin on “the empathic civilization”

For those of you not familiar with TED Talks here is a brief summery of them from www.ted.com:

TED is a small nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design. Since then its scope has become ever broader. Along with two annual conferences — the TED Conference in Long Beach and Palm Springs each spring, and the TEDGlobal conference in Oxford UK each summer — TED includes the award-winning TEDTalks video site, the Open Translation Project and Open TV Project, the inspiring TED Fellows and TEDx programs, and the annual TED Prize.

Today’s video is from TED’s Best of the Web series. According to TED:

In this talk from RSA Animate, bestselling author Jeremy Rifkin investigates the evolution of empathy and the profound ways it has shaped human development and society.

Jeremy Rifkin is president of the Foundation on Economic Trends and the author of 17 bestselling books on the impact of scientific and technological changes on the economy, the workforce, society and the environment. His books have been translated into more than thirty languages and are used in thousands of universities, corporations and government agencies around the world.

“The Empathic Civilization is emerging. A younger generation is fast extending its empathic embrace beyond religious affiliations and national identification to include the whole of humanity and the vast project of life that envelops the Earth” – Jeremy Rifkin

Not only is Jeremy Rifkin insightful, his videos are delightful to watch. Enjoy!
