To achieve greater inner peace, and thus
make more "room" within yourself for connection with Spirit
- try the following affirmation and meditation:
Affirmation for Inner Peace
Repeat the following affirmation 5 to 10
times when you wake up in the morning, before you go to bed at night,
and several times throughout the day:
"I am gracefully
accepting Spirit's healing and support, and I am welcoming the abundant
joy and peace available to me in every moment."
Meditation for Inner Peace
Meditate on the quality of "peace" once
or twice a day:
- Sit in a quite place where you won't be interrupted.
Turn off the TV, phones, and any other distractions.
- Close your eyes and ask for Spirit's presence and
healing.
- Visualize a peaceful white light filling you up and
spilling out in the area surrounding your body and out about 8 feet
around you. Take 3 deep breaths, visualizing the white light becoming
stronger with each breath.
- Then, for about 5 minutes, focus on "peace." During
this time, just sit back and observe whatever thoughts and images
come into your mind. As they come into your mind, let them float in
and then float out. Don't try to control or change what you're thinking
about - any thoughts are okay.
- Afterwards, reflect on what came forward in
your mind, and what significance your thoughts might have for how
you can create an experience of greater peace.
As you find yourself choosing towards peace
more often, and creating "pockets" of time when you can bring yourself
into peace despite whatever has been going on for you, you will likely
find that the things that have been "covering up" your inner peace will
naturally start to be resolved and you will experience more and more
peace in your daily life.
