Peace

Life can be so full on at times, and we can, at times, never seem to find the time to just stop. I think many of our worlds are all moving at a very fast pace and don’t always leave much time to find that inner peace. In the first lockdown, some of us found we had more time, but for others, it was even more pressure from our life commitments, or maybe it was coming from new factors. But whatever our lives throw at us, it is very important that we work to give ourselves more time to find our inner peace. Our deeper mind needs these times of peace to feel fully safe and secure. If we are always on the go then sometimes our minds can get stuck in this overdrive mode. It's like your car when it is over-revving, it's on this constant cycle and it has an impact on many aspects of the car, from using more fuel, and wearing the car out more quickly. Living on overdrive will have similar effects on how you feel, it is like draining your energy and wearing you out more quickly because of it. Over time, our minds can feel that life must be this way, and even when we could stop, we can find ourselves filling those gaps with more busyness. Our inner mind is always searching for the patterns, and if we are overdoing things in life, then this is just what pattern we end up getting stuck in.
