How can you work on your peace of mind?
The feeling of being grounded – your stability, alignment, flexibility and toughness – can be achieved through daily self-improvement based on three complementary and interdependent factors: your thoughts, your emotions, and your body. They may not all be easy to master.
1/ Know how to spot whether you are grounded (or not)
To see whether you are grounded here and now:
- Scan your thoughts:
- Are your thoughts clear, do words come easily to you, do you have ideas, are you effective, open, and curious? Grounded!
- Do you tend to be judgmental, of yourself and others, do the same thoughts keep going around and around? Not grounded.
- Check out your feelings and emotions:
- Are you joyful, satisfied, confident, enthusiastic? Grounded!
- Do you feel angry, irritated, bewildered, worried, fearful? Not grounded.
- Watch for bodily signals:
- Is your breathing calm, are your features relaxed, do your legs bear you easily? Grounded!
- Is your stomach in knots, your neck stiff, your shoulders hunched, your back aching? Not grounded.
- Think back on a situation in which you felt grounded and compare what you felt then with what you’re feeling now.
