True happiness is to enjoy the present without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied, for he that is wants nothing. The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not

We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.

I don't believe that everything happens for a specific reason, but I do believe that it's possible to find purpose even in the absence of any explanation.

Stillness is not about focusing on nothingness; it’s about creating a clearing. It’s about opening up an emotionally clutter-free space and allowing ourselves to feel and think and dream and question.

I define calm as creating perspective and mindfulness while managing emotional reactivity.

I believe a joyful life is made up of joyful moments gracefully strung together by trust, gratitude, inspiration and faith.

Happiness is tied to circumstance and joyfulness is tied to spirit and gratitude. I also learned that neither joy nor happiness is constant; no one feels happy all of the time or joyful all of the time. Both experiences come and go. Happiness is attached to external situations and events and seems to ebb and flow as these circumstances come and go. Joy seems to be constantly tethered to our hearts by spirit and gratitude.

Joy seems to me a step beyond happiness. Happiness is a sort of atmosphere you can live in sometimes when you're lucky. Joy is a light that fills you with hope and faith and love.

7/11 breathing. A skill to use for anxiety. It’s recommended to do it for 10-15 minutes. Like any other skill it does require a lot of practice. I advice that you practice it when you are feeling calm so you are ready in a time of need. If you lose count, which is easily done, simply start again until you do 15 minutes. It will also help with distraction even if you don’t get it right the first hundred times.
