Feel at Peace by Emptying Your Heart

Don’t let the heaviness pull you under. — Life is one big ocean that you and I are floating around in. And that’s the key — to keep floating. The best way to do that is by having an empty heart. …

Do You Want To Unleash Your Compassion?

All it takes is the right trigger. — Are you as compassionate as you’d like to be? If not, don’t worry. You aren’t broken or anything like that. There’s an endless reserve of compassion within you just waiting to burst forward, but you may not know how to open that tap and let it flow. The interesting thing…

You Don’t Need To Drop All Desires To Feel at Peace

You just need to follow the right ones. — If you’ve been on the spiritual path for some time, then you’ve probably come across the idea that only by eliminating desires can you achieve inner peace. In my experience, this doesn’t work well. I think desires are healthy, and trying to eliminate them can have a harmful effect. Feeling numb I…

Come Back to Your Body To Communicate With Your Feelings

Only then can hectic emotions find peace. — Most of us will live the greater part of our lives split in two. While the body is doing one thing, the mind is off doing another. A major downside to this is that we lose touch with ourselves. …

The Hooks in Our Hearts

Releasing attachments with mindfulness. — An attachment is a sharp hook that sinks deep into your heart. A chain hangs from the end of this hook, leading towards the object of your attachment. The other end of the chain holds another hook that stabs into whatever or whoever you’re holding onto. Attachments don’t like change…

To Return to Your Center You Have to First Escape the Fog

Find your way back to yourself with mindfulness. — At any time, we are either residing in the stability of our center or lost wandering the fog that surrounds it. When we stumble into that hazy mist within, we default to a less aware version of ourselves. We become controlled by emotions, circumstance, desires, and temptations. It’s easy to…

The Cost of Choosing Not To Feel

And how to resuscitate your spirit. — Did you put your soul on mute and forget about it? A good way to tell is by looking at your inspiration lately. Has there been any… for anything? If so, then great! If not, then you might have turned yourself into a drone. This is a functional state of…

There’s No Need To Be the Hero

An alternate way to drop the victimhood mentality and be at peace. — If you don’t take ownership of your life, then your circumstances, judgments, and insecurities will. This can bring about a sense of victimhood, which is very addictive. If you dwell on that feeling often, it can become your entire identity. …

Energetic Burnouts Are Common for One Main Reason That You Can Easily Prevent

Care for your energy by not blowing it on distractions. — Overstimulation is the modern-day vampire sipping our energy like fine wine while we eagerly line up to get bitten. It’s automatic at this point. From the first hint of a silent moment approaching, we throw ourselves right into the nearest distraction. This often means long periods of staring at screens…

You’re Stressed Because You Are Rushing

Use mindfulness to slow down and synchronize to the pace of the moment. — Are you afflicted by the “rush”? It’s a stressful state of desiring things to move faster than they are. It’s a focus on the result instead of the process. Really though, it’s just another way of being resistant to what is. The bad thing about rushing is it’s very stressful…
