Inner Peace Guided Meditation ~ Finding our way beyond Chaos! July 14 2024

I have noticed over the past few months that many people, including me, sometimes make decisions based on avoiding "Chaos"!  I have also noticed that these decisions do not always create a pathway around Chaos.

Maybe we could use our energy and our time a little better if we focused on coherent frequencies such as those in our Heart or those in the alpha and theta brain wave category while making decisions.  We know we can use our breath in specific ways to slow our heart rate and calm our nervous system. 

We have scientific studies showing how simple breathing techniques can shift our mood, even shift our perception of "reality"!  This is one of the main reasons that I begin our guided Inner Peace Meditation with conscious breathing.

Speaking about the value of shifting our perception, I just finished a delightful Young Adult fiction work by Rick Riordan, titled "The Serpent's Shadow"!  Very exciting and well-written, Rick describes the adventures of a teen-age sister and brother.  They are fighting a giant Serpent from Egyptian mythology to stop the forces of Chaos from taking over the World.   I could tell my perception of our current "disorderly world" shifted from being super, super serious to being calmer and "enlightened". 

There was plenty of fighting with demons and demigods and strange creatures.  However, at critical moments, the heroines and heroes would step away from the frenzy of battle, find the Great Inner Calm, and carry on the battle from there.  Great example, I thought !!!  (They always won, of course!)

Thank You for showing up and staying on our Quest for Greater Inner Peace within and in the world.  Trust you are doing well and taking good care of yourself.

Have a Wonderful Week and 

Remember to Breathe ...
