How To Find Inner Peace

Achieving inner peace is one of the most important goals of our lives. You may well think that such a state is a mere myth, or that it is impossible to achieve. Or maybe you know people who say they’ve found peace, but you’re not sure if it’s yourself achievable.

In my opinion, a better expression is perhaps “I have found a balance”. You may have sometimes been in a situation where you are in the middle of a conflict, but even so, you still feel calm and balanced. Basically, this is exactly what this is about, but on a slightly larger scale.

We live in a world full of stress, worries, and hurry, but if we succeed in achieving peace in our own minds, we will at the same time find a sense of inner balance that persists and endures no matter what happens around us.

“He who has not made peace with himself is at war with the whole world.”

-Mahatma Gandhi-

What does inner peace mean?

It’s about a stable inner sense of balance that you can maintain despite all the negative events. Achieving and maintaining this balance is an ongoing job, but here are a few tips that might help you along the way:

1. Make your life as simple as possible.

Aim in your life for a situation where you have as few worries as possible, and keep in mind that quality replaces quantity. This also applies to interpersonal relationships. Don’t be left hanging in destructive relationships or friendships, as such relationships will only upset your balance.

Also apply the principle of simplicity to your worldly possessions, such as your clothes. As the seasons change next, think about what clothes you didn’t wear and why, and whether you really need to use them anymore. If the answer is no, donate them somewhere or give them as gifts to a friend, for example. This will save you the hassle of organizing your wardrobe and make someone else happy.

If you are about to make a purchase, think carefully about whether you really need it. Don’t let advertising or fashion phenomena dictate your life. Through this mindset, you can only focus on what really matters. Free yourself!

2. Be present.

Don’t Vello in the past. If something goes wrong, you can try to fix the situation at this point, but stop complaining unnecessarily. Work to make the present better. Also, don’t worry too much about the future. Focus on being here and now, and enjoy life.

3. Be grateful and smile.

See the glass half full, not half empty. Be grateful for what you have – even for those little things. Be grateful for your parents, your family, and most of all, be thankful that you exist.

Also try to change your attitude towards salespeople, for example. Smile when dealing with people. This will change both your mood and their mood. You’ll notice how much easier it is to interact with everyone. A smile always carries serenity, happiness and love.

4. Remember that nothing is permanent.

Time will inevitably go ahead, regardless of whether you are doing well or badly right now. Make the most of the good moments and when the bad times hit you, remember that nothing is permanent. Time goes by its own paths.

One good exercise for this is to imagine being someone else. How would you solve your own situation if you were someone else? It’s important to try to see things from a different perspective and stay calm. It is extremely important to try to stay calm in any situation. Take a deep breath, turn your gaze inward and calm yourself. Time will fix everything.

5. Complete what you have started.

This guideline applies to all areas of life. In studies, in working life, in love – even in grief. It is your responsibility to complete the things that come to your life. Be patient, including with yourself. Everything happens on time and things tend to get organized. However, in order to be able to move forward and find your peace, you will sooner or later have to complete everything you have begun.

For most of our lives, we focus more on the past than on the present. However, finding inner peace will change this. It gives you the ability to leave behind what is not important and necessary so that you can enjoy what you have today.
