Find Inner Peace

Personalized support for learning how to integrate mindfulness into your life. Delivered fresh everyday by our world renowned experts. Choose meditation duration:

Hi, welcome back to your Daily Mindfulness. Today we're going to talk about inner peace. The interesting thing about inner peace is that it doesn't exist in some future moment to be uncovered. It's the by-product of a mind that embraces all dimensions of who you are. This is important to remember on the journey of inner peace, because it's so easy to get caught up in the subconscious striving for a future moment when things will arrange themselves in such a way that we can be peaceful with them.

Even though we might know this is an internal journey, much of the time when we think about our inner growth, there is this sense of, well, something in the future will change and then I'll have gotten there, wherever there is. And it's true that your experience of inner peace mighthappen in a future moment, but it's not going to come from trying to get there. It's going to come from trying to get more fully here, meeting yourself, settling into yourself, making peace with yourself with whatever's here, sadness, frustration, self hate. You can even do it while you're listening right now. Notice if there's a feeling of trying to get somewhere else.

I like to use that phrase, your welcome here too, to whatever my internal experience is. If it's agitation, boredom, discontent or the absence of inner peace. See if you can just be with that for a moment. And the more you do this, the more you're relaxing into yourself and the less you're striving for some future moment where it will all come together. Inner peace can only exist when we embrace and welcome the full dimensions of our life as it's unfolding.

So this is something we can do moment by moment by moment. We'll talk more about this in the meditation, but thank you for your practice and I'll talk to you soon. Take care.
