A peace of mind is a new expression based from the previous one, a piece of mind. To give someone a piece of your mind usually meant to push your opinion or views in a negative manner. I think it’s funny to turn this meaning around into something more positive, to share your peace of mind with others. To express your peace to the world in a friendly and opening manner. To seek a peace of mind is to literally bring peace into your mind. When you seek a peace of mind, you will find your life to be more fulfilling and calm. Here are six ways to seek a peace of mind…

  1. Solitude. Spending time alone can teach you a lot about yourself. You can gather your thoughts. You can take time to meditate. You can take time to truly soak in every single moment. You create your environment and level of energy when you are alone. You can choose what you want to be doing. When you are alone, you can fully focus on you. This helps to bring peace to your mind.
  2. Communication. When we communicate with others, especially like-minded ones we are able to expand and build a peace of mind. We can communicate our views and opinions and listen to others views and opinions. We can say out loud our feelings and express ourselves to outside energies. Communicating with others pulls us into the present moment and out of our own head.
  3. Connection. Connecting the dots of life is something our nervous system naturally does for us. When we make connections to things in our life it helps us to realize the oneness that is all things. We seek a peace of mind that we are all here together with the plants, animals, and all things that are life. We seek a peace of mind to connect and relate to each other. Everyday we are growing bonds.
  4. Exercise. Exercise is a great way to seek a peace of mind. When you take an hour a day to work out or do yoga you seek peace within the mental and physical aspects of life. You are able to focus on movement rather than being still and over-thinking. Your muscles pump the blood through the body and you feel balanced all around. You become motivated and are able to seek a peaceful mind through the endurance.
  5. Knowledge. There is always something new to learn every single day. To seek a peace of mind is to understand the world around you along with yourself. I feel like I learn something new about myself everyday. When you read a book or study a topic you are seeking a peace of mind. Learning is a part of life. When you expand knowledge within your life you will find that you naturally seek a peace of mind.
