Energy flow of body and the energy flow of universe if matched then one attains serenity. I have read these lines in a devotional book that makes me believe that one should gather calmness to stay in tune with universe.
In a rush to complete many tasks in little
frame of time with many distractions beside, we tend to loose calm attitude. And
by doing so sometimes we mess up with our work or sometimes the tasks are done
half heartedly and sometimes without your perfection level. And later we
realize that we could not stay calm in situations and the result is not as
expected.
Deep down we all want to be calm in every
stressful situation and act wisely. But does calmness come on its own or its
inherited? So how does one attain calmness and peaceful attitude in crisis situations?
Not losing our temperament and maintaining a calm demeanor comes
with constant exercise. Practicing in a proper way can imbibe in us the
beauty of peacefulness. So lets follow these 5 guidelines to stay calm.
1. Choose a corner or a place:
You can choose a corner of the room brightly lit with natural sunlight or a place in house that is quiet and no one else disturbs you. This you can call your quiet spot or calmness spot. Most important is keep your gadgets away from this place because you need to place an important thing in this corner. Lets see what it is in next pointer.2. Place a figurine: Keep a figurine that sparkles calmness and happiness. A Buddha figurine is a perfect choice as its hue itself spreads calmness and divinity all around. The lessons of self-control and focused attitude are what the figurine imbibes within us. Place the idol in such a position that you can see it properly. Peaceful environment makes you think logically and practically and Buddha, Ganesha idols have a natural aura that makes one calm in just few minutes.
3. Sit
and focus: Once you are done selecting a place just gives a few minutes to
focus on the ways, which needs more attention. Sit in relaxed mood and look at
idol in complete peaceful manner leaving all your worries. Think deep, the
cause of your stress. Is that materialistic thing or an emotional connecting?
Asking yourself few questions you will get answers.
4. Talk
in solitude: This may seem a bit difficult but we do it most of the times
unknowingly that we keep taking to self. This self-speaking raises many
questions in mind and also our brain and heart answers many. Yes, you know
yourself best and you can comeup with answers and solutions to your queries if
you are in peaceful aura. You will be surprised that all stress leaves you in
few minutes and you are back to start your day with positive energy.
5. Get
up with peaceful smile: Now you got answers to
all your pointers and you know your plan of action, next most important thing
is to SMILE. A smile is a cure to all the problems around, so make a habit to
smile always.
These are not the only ways to stay calm and peaceful in life, one can do it in many other ways. These steps give me a calmness and focus in life. I really like doing my favorite corner with my chosen figurines. And I find these idols in all sizes and postures at RoqueHandicrafts website and on leading online store Amazon. So you too select a place in your home and place the idol of your choice and see the magic happen.

Avoiding distractions is the key mantra Manas. We are now a days so engaged in things that we don't focus on self-talk and self thinking.
DeleteI liked self-speaking in solitude as your inner voice can have answers to many questions but yes it needs practice
ReplyDeleteSelf talk in calm atmosphere surely answers many questions, we should carefully listen to it.
DeleteGood pointers. My idea of staying calm is to speak up in solitude OR listen to the soothing music OR just go out alone on a walk in the lap of the nature. Sometimes all you need is some freshness and Mother Nature offers it in abundance.
ReplyDeleteYes spending time with nature also refreshes our mind and shows us direction in the life.
