I Find Peace Like This
I’ve lived in London for two years. Since the very first moment I arrived, I knew I would always love this city. In the enormity of London we can find everything we could have ever imagined, and more. We can meet amazing people we would never imagine that would exist and live the most interesting experiences, those that shake our brains and make our hearts vibrate.
Find a space in your room to meditate, to write, to think about yourself and most important to work for a better day. Give yourself a smile.
The monks will tell you that it is necessary to grow out of being a slave of your desires. They eat for the sole purpose of feeding their bodies. And that’s right for them, because they choose to live happily with that premise. For other people who are not monks, desires are part of our essence. And it is by learning to control them that we can enjoy them in a mindful way.
We heard a lot in conferences, quotes, Facebook images that we have to enjoy each day, but from my experience actually doing it is quite difficult. As my master LP John from Peace Revolution said: “Is easy, if you make it easy.”
Sometimes while growing up, our parents, our teachers, our friends try to affect our own dreams. Most of the time they want the best for us, but as we discover in our life paths, only us can determine what is the best for each one of us.
Since I was a child I have always had the biggest dreams. I remember drawing dinosaurs and creating stories during class. It as all about a group of adventurers discovering new worlds. Our ship transformed into a submarine and allowed us to find new creatures.
Mude suas palavras, mude sua vida!
A linguagem molda o nosso comportamento e cada palavra que usamos está imbuído no significado pessoal. As palavras certas ditas da maneira correta pode nos trazer amor, dinheiro e respeito, enquanto as palavras erradas ou mesmo as palavras certas falada no caminho errado pode levar a um país em guerra. Devemos cuidadosamente orquestrar o nosso discurso, se quisermos alcançar nossos objetivos e trazer os nossos sonhos para a realidade.
It’s certainly not a coincidence that both the words ‘medicine’ and ‘meditation’ come from the same etymological root: the Greek prefix “med”, which alludes to a medium point in between two opposites or, in other words, to that subtle state of balance we hear so much about in health blogs and yoga lessons but rarely get the chance to truly interiorize. In this brief post I’ll share my experience of meditation as the most effective, universal and low-cost medicine I have ever tried.
A vida vai se enriquecendo com momentos, com alegrias, com amor, com felicidade … quanto mais momentos de felicidade e de amor mais ricos somos… até descobrirmos que essa riqueza já faz parte de nós permanentemente. É a nossa natureza.
