I Find Peace Like This
¿Coche nuevo, vestido caro, vacaciones en Canarias? Habitualmente creemos que la felicidad nos la otorgan los bienes exteriores. ¿Pero y si miramos en nuestro interior y nos damos cuenta de que podemos ser felices aquí y ahora? ¿Y si meditamos? Peace Revolution España va a organizar un tour para compartir los beneficios de la meditación y mindfulness (o atención plena). Del 29 de septiembre al 1 de octubre, las guías certificadas de meditación Alejandra Barbé Sevilla and Agnija Kazuša se dedicarán a impartir clases para aprender a meditar y a compartir su experiencia sobre el estilo de vida mindful en diferentes sesiones a lo largo de Barcelona, Madrid, Asturias y Galicia.
¿Quién siente que tiene demasiado tiempo libre? ¿O que al día le sobran horas que no sabemos cómo rellenar? No son estas sensaciones habituales para nadie ¿verdad? Y es totalmente comprensible, no hay más que repasar de memoria todo lo que hacemos al día para darnos cuenta de que no es tiempo precisamente lo que nos sobra. Trabajamos, estudiamos, cuidamos de nuestra familia, mantenemos una vida social, viajamos… ¿es posible sacar tiempo libre? La respuesta que todos nos damos es un rotundo no. Sin embargo, quizá deberíamos reformular la pregunta y cuestionarnos, ¿si consiguiéramos sacar tiempo libre, para que nos serviría, en qué lo invertiríamos?

“We are what we eat” is a phrase that my dad kept on repeating to me since I was a kid. I’ve always understood it as an advice to eat healthy food in order to ensure a long life free of diseases. That’s why I’ve always thought that eating mindfully was just about taking care of the food I feed myself with.
In this globalized era, where there is a constant flow of information, we pretty much can say that everyone who has access to technology is aware more than ever and in real time about what is going on in the world.

AM I HAPPY?
I have always considered myself to be lucky. I was born in a loving family, I’ve never had health issues, I’ve always enjoyed the company of great friends, I’ve been able to pursue the career I chose and I ‘ve had the opportunity to develop all the hobbies I dreamt of. However, many times I struggled to be happy like if having all these things wasn’t enough.
Don’t you think that many people face stressful lives? We’re always worried about something. Work, studies, family, relationships… there are many different things that trigger our anxiety levels. Being always worried about so many issues can make us be even more susceptible to the less-meaningful-everyday-problems. And we finally end up stressed because of everything, and we feel irritated even for issues that we imagine coming.
