Stress Free Living – Finding Inner Peace

12/08/2010 By Linda Hampton 3 Comments

Have you ever woke up in the middle of the night with a panicky feeing about all you need to get done the next day? Are you ever overwhelmed about where to start because you have so much to do and no time to get it done?

Everyone has these feelings from time to time, but you can learn to find inner peace. A peaceful mind is a more calm and serene mind, and in learning to remove anxious thoughts, you also find more joy in your life!

How to Achieve Peace Within

When you have a mind that will not stop, you usually are hard-pressed to find inner peace. The more your mind races, the more anxious and frustrated you may become, and this can lead to unproductive days, weeks, months and sometime even years. You don’t have to continue to live this way. There are many ways to calm your overanxious mind and you really can learn how to live a more calm and peaceful life.

If your mind starts running a million miles a minute and you’re not sure which way to turn next, try to pause and repeat a positive affirmation. When you use the power of positive self-talk, you will program your mind to work in a new and different way.

When things seem as if they are getting out of hand, you can use an affirmation such as, “I trust my ability to relax. I am calm and peaceful.” Although this may not be the case at the moment, if you repeat this constantly you will start to believe it. This will help you change your inner dialogue in those moments when you are tempted to succumb to the craziness surrounding you.

Positive affirmations are important because they give you permission to turn off the negative dialogue in your mind and replace it with positive thoughts. The negative dialogue feeds the feelings of turmoil, and when you replace them with peaceful affirmations, you change your life, one positive statement at a time. 

If you have a hard time believing that this strategy will work for you, give it a try with an open heart and mind. It really does work!  In no time at all, you’ll feel more peaceful in every area of your life.

Many of us feel like we cannot do anything about the crazy lives we lead and the inner discontent we feel. I can assure you that this is not true! When you use positive affirmations, you can reprogram your brain so that there is only room for positive thoughts. You will be surprised to find how quickly a positive affirmation such as, “I trust that there is a plan for my life, even if it has yet to be revealed to me” can work for you.

If you feel like your life has gotten off course and you don’t think it’s possible to lead a calm life, why not give a peaceful affirmation a chance?  If you repeat affirmations often enough, you’ll soon begin to believe them, and you’ll turn a seemingly simple statement into reality.

So how do you find inner peace.  Be sure to post a comment here.

    I can so relate to your comment about waking up in the middle of the night worrying about how I am going to be able to get everything done that I need to do. The affirmations that I usually fall back on include –

    God is here, all is well.
    God is here, good is here.
    I can do all things through God who strengthens me.

    I also say an affirmative prayer and that usually allows me to get back to sleep.

    I wish that I would stop doing this to myself because I am always able to get everything done. It seems that 3:00 in the morning is the time when all of my doubts appear.

    I agree that having a peaceful mind you’ll receive more joy in life. It;s the same way with law of attraction. If you think positive and minimize thinking negative thoughts you reinforce your desires in your thoughts so it will manifest physically in life.

    Pattern interrupts like the one you suggested are a great way to refocus and start living calmer. At the same time you also need to acknowledge those stressors and learned from that experience otherwise you will be going on an endless loop.
