How to find Peace and happiness Within

By Ripa Mehta

Everyone wants to be happy & peaceful & we all believe that peace & happiness are two important pillars of our mental wellness. Today I would like to share some easy to follow things to find peace & happiness within.

The most important question is, what is our ultimate goal of our life? What are we doing to achieve that goal ?

First let’s understand What is happiness & what we can do to feel peace & happiness.

According to me, inner peace & happiness both are states of mind. Inner Peace & happiness both depends on many factors depending on everyone ' s nature & needs.

What can we do to find inner Peace & Happiness?

*We can practice following things to feel peace & happiness.

1. Everyday be thankful for the things & people you have in your life means start living in gratitude.

2. Everyday you should spend 10 minutes with nature. Try to Walk in the garden or just walk outside.

3. Everyday do some breathing exercises - Pranayama or Om chanting for 10 minutes.

4. Everyday do meditation for at least 20 minutes.

5. Try to connect with like minded people and spend some time with them.

6. If you ever feel stuck in a problem or any situation, try to change your perspective.

7. Try to be in the present moment as living in the past can give you guilt, and thinking of the future can give you anxiety. so enjoy the present moment by being 100% in that moment.

One of the most important way to feel happy & peaceful is by practicing self love. We all feel good when someone praises our work. So when we start to acknowledge our work, praise our work, accept ourself unconditionally, acknowledge our needs & try to accept & love ourself unconditionally, we start feeling happiness & peace.

We all love our parents, kids, partner, siblings & our friends unconditionally & do so many things to make them happy but most of the time we tend to forget about our own self. That is the reason I try to remind everyone to do self love to feel peace & happiness within.

Basically happiness is a choice, it is only in your hand how to be happy or in Peace.

No one other than you, nothing other than your thoughts can make you feel happy or peaceful.

So start living in gratitude, start thinking more positively & Start doing meditation, yoga, self love and start feeling Happiness & Peace within.
