24-003 Calmness

”the quality of being free from agitation or strong emotion”

All day I’ve had the song “Silent Night” playing over and over in my head, even before today’s value word was randomly chosen. It’s my favorite Christmas carol…it’s the most calming of all of them.

With the current state of my health (stress, anxiety, blood pressure/cholesterol issues), now more than ever I need to do what I can to attain this state. Actually, the whole world could benefit from calmness.

For a while there I had been setting my watch timer to go off every 20 minutes as a reminder to breathe and that was helping. Not sure why I stopped…doesn’t matter…I just reset my timer.

Actually, what I need to do is dig deeper to uncover and heal the source of my chronic anxiety. I’ve been following the @TheAnxietyMD (Russell Kennedy, MD) on IG and his podcast (The Anxiety RX). Now would be a good time to implement what I’ve learned from him.

How about you? Do you value calmness?

joyfully,

About the 2024 Mandalas of the Day

Each day I will create and post a mandala inspired by one of 366 “value” words chosen randomly. The objective being to discover for myself which ones would best represent my core values…and by doing so, I hope it inspires you to determine your own.

My Mission: connecting with our Inner Light in delightful, inspiring ways For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits. Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it. As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
