Ever felt overwhelmed?
Maybe we have too many things to deal with, maybe our lives are too busy, maybe we feel suffocated...and maybe it's just too noisy out there......
Living in this modern (distorted) world today, we are overwhelmed and stressful, sometimes we just need a break, yes just a very short break everyday makes a huge difference!
Don't call it luxury, grabbing some quiet moments for ourselves everyday should never be any waste of time, it is necessary(and priority) to everyone unless you prefer self-torturing.
No matter we have an hour or just 5 minutes, the power of solitude is far more than expected. Put aside all the daily stuff and empty our mind for a while. It can be a coffee break at a quiet corner, a walk in the park, or simply look up at the sky and watch the cloud, we can even do a painting or write calligraphy....it all depends on the time you are willing to spare. The main purpose is to relax and focus on the present moment, it's not difficult to get mindfulness! (Stay away from the phone, don't get online, your conscious mind could never get the real rest when you keep feeding yourself with Facebook feeds)
When was the last time you communicate with yourself and feel your true feeling? Do you know we are the best listener and consultant to ourselves?
The quiet moment opens up the communication channel with our inner self, allows us to feel our emotion and feeling. The calmness does not only relieve us from stress, it lets us to see things clearly in a more objective view, and unexpectedly brings out brilliant ideas. We feel totally re-energized and sometimes even "enlightened"!
Even taking your mind one minute away is good to re-boot the system or save yourself from the overwhelm situation on the spot. Simply close your eyes and focus on the deep breaths, or stare at somewhere far away outside the window, bring your mind up to the clouds and let it be free (mind free) for one minute.
When I communicate with myself, I feel my whole self in the greatest harmony and peace, everything happening within me becomes smooth, natural, appropriate and good, hence I got the highest fulfillment from it. I always have most of my problems solved and questions answered during my quiet moment with myself, and I feel really grateful about it.
So let's treat our mind a short vacation everyday!
Be good to ourselves!
