Stillness Quotes And Tips

Find Stillness In The Busyness

Find Stillness In The Busyness

With our busy schedules, we can often complain that we dont have time to meditate. But if we are sincere in our desire to go inside, we can create our own moments of stillness in the midst of our activity.

How do we do this in a busy life? We set priorities, for one thing. Perhaps it means giving up a TV program or using a coffee break to grab a few moments of solitude. Perhaps we have to ask our partner, relative or neighbour to give us 30 minutes of time away from the kids.

We can also use down time to good advantage. Stopped at a traffic light? Do some deep breathing. Waiting in line at the bank or grocery store? Repeat a mantra or focus your mind on something that relaxes you or brings you joy. Riding the bus to and from work? Value these times to close your eyes and go within or to say a little prayer.

If we really want something, we can make it happen. And if we take time daily to experience physical stillness and to direct our attention inside, we can begin to find the peace, love, will and wisdom that exist as our essence.
