Connection & Calm

“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.”

~ William James

We all want to feel calmer emotionally, right? The article linked below has interesting suggestions and I hope it is helpful in finding a more peaceful emotional life.

Purpose keeps you steady

Take a look at Two Keys to a Calmer Emotional Life from the Greater Good and then click on the “research” link in the second paragraph. It has an interesting explanation of the purpose, a bit more expansive than you might think.

Mindfulness and Loving-kindness can help you to know yourself deeply! This knowledge can help you understand your purpose in life.

For stability, try fluidity

Fluidity requires looking beyond oneself. Loving-kindness and mindfulness can help us open to connection and love for the whole world. What a wonderful way to feel less separated from others and calmer emotionally.
