17 Fun & Simple ways to find your Inner Peace

 

By Mark Rosenberg

 

Life is busy. We are busy. Taking time for yourself might sound easier said than done, but it actually is very doable and can be a life changing experience for the better. 

We’ve put together a list of simple things that will help to calm your mind and give your much needed time to find and enjoy yourself.

Any one of these exercises, activities and hobbies can help you move closer to finding your inner-peace and bring you joy in the process. Imagine if you indulge in two, three or more? These are just the start of what could become a life changing journey.

Enjoy!

Breathe 

You know, sometimes we overlook the simplest things in life, like our own breathing. But did you know that just taking a few minutes each day to focus on your breath can bring you a sense of calm like you’ve never experienced before? It’s called focused breathing, and it’s a powerful and easy technique to calm your mind and reduce stress. All you need is a quiet spot and a few minutes of your time.

Sit down, get comfy, and close your eyes. Take a nice, slow breath in through your nose, feeling your belly expand as you fill your lungs with air. Hold it for a moment, and then let it out slowly through your mouth, releasing any tension or stress you’ve been carrying.

The magic of deep breathing lies in its ability to tap into your body’s natural relaxation response. It activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which is like your body’s chill-out mode. Your heart rate slows down, your blood pressure drops, and you start to feel a wave of relaxation washing over you.

You can even try incorporating a mantra into your breathing practice. A mantra is just a single word or phrase that you repeat in your mind. It can be something simple like “peace” or “ohm.” Repeating your mantra during your deep breathing practice can take it to a whole new level of zen. This technique is called Transcendental Meditation. It has been embraced by some pretty cool folks. The Beatles learned it during their time in India, and even Jerry Seinfeld swears by it. He credits his daily 20-minute TM sessions with helping him survive the crazy workload of his sitcom.

But you don’t need to be a rockstar or a comedian to benefit from deep breathing. It’s a practice that anyone can do, anytime, anywhere. And the best part? It requires nothing but your breath. So find a comfy spot, close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Inhale the good vibes, exhale the stress. Let the rhythm of your breath transport you to a place of peace and serenity.

Try to make it a part of your daily routine. With regular practice, you’ll become a pro at managing stress, staying mindful, and finding that deep inner peace we all crave. Start taking those deep breaths and embrace the calmness that comes with it.

 

Recognising and Acknowledging Gratitude:

Practicing gratitude is a powerful tool for cultivating inner peace and raising your vibration. It involves intentionally focusing on the things you are grateful for in your life and acknowledging the abundance that surrounds you.

Taking just a few moments each day to reflect on and express gratitude can have profound effects on your mental well-being as well as lead you closer towards manifesting your dreams.

One way to cultivate gratitude is by keeping a gratitude journal. Set aside a few minutes each day to write down three things you are grateful for. They can be big or small, ranging from meaningful relationships and good health to moments of joy or simple pleasures.

By acknowledging and appreciating these positive aspects of your life, you shift your mindset from focusing on what’s lacking to recognising what’s already present and abundant.

Take a few moments to pause and reflect on the things you are grateful for. It could be during a quiet moment in the morning, before going to bed, or while going for a walk. 

You can be thankful for the air you breathe, your family, friends, your health, the food you eat, your home, your bed, your next meal or even the comfort of your pillow.

Just going through this exercise list releases endorphins and makes you instantaneously feel better. It just makes you appreciate that there is so much to be grateful for that you just never realised. 

The Law of Attraction states that you receive what you focus on. So focus on the good not the bad. This could really be a life changer.

By regularly focusing on the things you’re grateful for, you train your mind to notice and appreciate the positive aspects of life, which in turn promotes a sense of inner peace and contentment. So, make it a habit to incorporate gratitude into your daily routine.

Whether through journaling or mindful reflection, take the time to recognise and express gratitude for the abundance and blessings in your life. There are so many. You just need to notice them.

 

Meditation:

Meditation is a practice that involves bringing your attention to the present moment, without judgment or attachment. It is a powerful tool for cultivating a sense of inner peace, reducing stress, and enhancing overall well-being.

By dedicating a specific time each day to engage in mindfulness meditation, you can experience the profound benefits it offers.

Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can sit or lie down without distractions. Phone Off!

Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to settle into the present moment. Allow your body to relax and release any tension you may be holding. Now, shift your attention to your breath. Observe the sensation of each inhalation and exhalation, without trying to change or control it. Notice the rising and falling of your abdomen or the feeling of the breath entering and leaving your nostrils.

As you continue to focus on your breath, thoughts, sensations, and emotions may arise. Instead of getting caught up in them or judging them as good or bad, simply observe them with curiosity and non-judgmental awareness. Allow them to come and go, like passing clouds in the sky, while maintaining a gentle anchor on your breath. You may notice that your mind wanders off into thoughts or distractions. When this happens, gently bring your attention back to your breath.

As you practice meditation regularly, you will begin to develop a heightened sense of awareness and presence in your daily life.

You may notice a greater ability to respond to challenging situations with clarity and composure, rather than reacting impulsively.

Start with just a few minutes each day and gradually increase the duration as you become more comfortable with the practice.

Over time, you may find that the benefits extend beyond your meditation sessions and permeate all aspects of your life, fostering a greater sense of inner peace and serenity.

 

Create a Relaxing Ritual:

Creating a personal ritual can help you disconnect from the stresses of the day and cultivate a sense of calm and rejuvenation. Whether it’s a daily practice or a weekly indulgence, having a specific time set aside for relaxation can have a profound impact on your overall well-being.

Consider what activities bring you joy and help you relax. Perhaps it’s taking a warm bath with Epsom salts and your favorite essential oils. The warm water soothes your muscles, while the scents of the oils create a tranquil ambiance.

You can enhance the experience further by dimming the lights, playing soft music, or lighting candles to create a serene atmosphere.

Quietly enjoy a cup of herbal tea while immersing yourself in a good book is another way to create a relaxing ritual. Choose a herbal tea blend known for its calming properties, such as chamomile or lavender. 

Allow yourself to fully savour the flavours and aroma as you find a cozy spot to settle in with a book. This combination of warmth, relaxation, and gentle mental stimulation can transport you to a state of tranquility and peace.

The key to a successful relaxing ritual is consistency. By designating a specific time each day or week for this practice, you send a signal to your body and mind that it’s time to slow down and nurture yourself. Even if it’s just 15 minutes a day or an hour once a week, this dedicated time becomes a sanctuary for your well-being.

When engaging in your chosen ritual, be fully present and mindful of the experience. Allow yourself to let go of any worries or distractions and immerse yourself in the moment. Pay attention to the sensations, scents, and flavors, and let yourself be fully absorbed in the relaxation and joy that the ritual brings.

Creating a relaxing ritual is an act of self-care that prioritises your mental and emotional well-being. It provides a much-needed respite from the demands of everyday life and offers a space for rejuvenation and inner peace.

Experiment with different activities and find what resonates with you the most.

The goal is to create a personalised practice that brings you a sense of deep relaxation and allows you to reconnect with your inner self. 

 

Explore Guided Imagery:

Guided imagery is a powerful practice that allows you to tap into the power of your imagination to create a peaceful and calming inner experience. By engaging in guided imagery exercises, you can transport your mind to serene landscapes or anywhere you can possibly imagine, helping you let go of stress and find a deep sense of tranquility within.

Start by selecting a guided meditation. There are many available on YouTube, Insight Timer or other streaming platforms.

Follow the instructions provided in the meditation or visualisation, allowing yourself to fully immerse in the experience. Allow yourself to be fully present in this imagined space, letting go of any distractions or worries from the outside world.

As the guided imagery unfolds, you may find yourself feeling a sense of relaxation, calmness, and inner peace. The tranquil landscapes and positive imagery created through your imagination can have a profound effect on your state of mind, helping to release stress, tension, and negative thoughts.

Incorporating guided imagery into your daily routine can have a transformative effect on your overall well-being. 

 

Embrace Nature:

Spending time in nature provides a powerful way to calm the mind, find solace, and tap into the soothing and grounding energy that it offers.

One of the simplest ways to embrace nature is by taking a walk in a nearby park, beach or natural area.

Step away from the hustle and bustle of daily life and immerse yourself in the serene environment which surrounds you.

As you stroll along, breathe in the fresh air, and let the sights and sounds of nature envelop you. Observe the beauty of the trees, flowers, and wildlife that cross your path. We are surrounded by beauty. Its everywhere. Don’t miss out by not noticing it.  

The combination of fresh air, natural beauty, and physical exertion can create a profound sense of well-being and inner peace. Even if you don’t have easy access to parks or mountains, you can still connect with nature by simply sitting in a garden or green space. Find a quiet spot where you can relax and be still.

The sights, sounds, and scents of the natural world have a profound impact on our senses, helping to shift our focus to the positive side of life.

Nature also offers a sense of grounding and connection.

To make the most of your time in nature, consider engaging all your senses.

Feel the texture of the earth beneath your feet or the coolness of a flowing stream.

Take in the fragrance of flowers or the earthy scent of the forest.

Engaging your senses brings you into a deeper connection with nature and amplifies the calming and healing effects.

The time spent in natural surroundings provides a much-needed respite from the demands of daily life, allowing you to recharge, find balance, and cultivate a sense of inner peace.

 

Practice Yoga:

The gentle yet powerful combination of movement, breath, and mindfulness can help reduce stress, increase flexibility and strength, and promote a sense of inner peace and well-being.

The best way to practice Yoga is by joining a Yoga class. With a class you’ll be guided by the instructor which is highly recommended. You’ll also share the experience with a group of like minded people which could be a way of making new friends. 

Its easy to find Yoga classes pretty much anywhere in the world. Or better still if you’re really in need of a reset you can go to a Yoga retreat and indulge in a whole bunch of wellness activities over a few days.

The next best thing to joining a class is to watch Yoga on YouTube. This is a great option and its as simple as turning on your device, get comfortable and start stretching. The beauty of this is its free and can be practiced at home at your own pace.

Some offer a 30 day challenge which is recommended to get the most out of it and gets you into a routine.

Like any practice, consistency is key. Aim to practice yoga regularly, even if it’s just for a few minutes each day. Consistency allows you to build strength, flexibility, and mindfulness over time, reaping the full benefits of the practice.


Avoid comparing yourself to others and honour your own pace and progress.

 

Experience Kirtan (Group Singing and Chanting):

You don’t need to go to extreme lengths like shaving your head and dancing down the street singing Hare Krishna.

Kirtan is a beautiful practice that invites you to join a group and sing along. Regardless of whether you know or understand the words. 

Immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere of a Kirtan, where you sit on the floor, singing in Sanskrit or sometimes in English, surrounded by a room filled with like-minded individuals. 

Kirtan can go from singing soft sweet gentle melodies and build up to a state of pure joy and ecstasy. 

Kirtan is an ancient practice originating from India that involves the repetitive chanting of mantras. It is a participatory and immersive experience where a leader or a band will sing the mantra, and the participants respond by repeating the chant.

As the melodies and rhythms envelop you, the chanting resonates within your being, touching deep layers of emotion and inviting you to express and release any emotional burdens.


The collective chanting in a kirtan creates a harmonious energy that reverberates throughout the space. This energy has the potential to harmonize your own energy field, clear energetic blockages, and promote a sense of balance and well-being.


Kirtan provides a safe and non-judgmental space for self-expression and pure joy. Whether you are singing, clapping, or swaying to the music, you are encouraged to express yourself authentically and freely, allowing your inner voice to be heard and celebrated.


If you haven’t yet experienced a kirtan, it’s an experience that surpasses your wildest expectations in terms of its power and enjoyment – you’ve just gotta try it!

 

Disconnect from Technology:

You’re not alone, we’re all addicted. Yes we all know we need to do this… Remember the good old days before smart phones! We all know that constant exposure to technology can leave us feeling overwhelmed, distracted, and mentally drained. 

Here are a few practical strategies to help you break free from the grip of technology:

First things first, set aside some designated tech-free time. Choose specific periods during the day or week when you put your devices on silent mode, resist the urge to check emails or social media, and focus on other things that bring you joy.

Create digital-free zones in your surroundings. Pick certain areas in your home or workplace where technology is strictly off-limits. Your bedroom or dining area could be a sanctuary of tech-free bliss, allowing you to relax, connect with loved ones, and enjoy the present moment without any digital distractions.

Now, let’s talk about the things you can do when you’re unplugged. Remember those hobbies and activities that don’t involve screens? Make a list of them and make a commitment to indulge in them during your tech-free time. Whether it’s reading a book, practicing yoga, exploring nature, cooking up a storm, or unleashing your creative side, prioritize these activities and give yourself a chance to disconnect and recharge.

Oh, and don’t forget the power of face-to-face interactions. Remember those good old-fashioned conversations with real people? Make an effort to schedule regular meetups, coffee dates, or outings with friends and family.

Engaging in genuine, in-person conversations and activities can work wonders for your mental well-being and help you feel more connected. Remember, the goal here isn’t to completely banish technology from your life (let’s be real, it has its perks). It’s about finding a healthy balance.

By consciously disconnecting, you create space for mental clarity, reconnection with yourself and others, and a renewed sense of inner peace that can be hard to find in our tech-saturated world. 

Give yourself the gift of tech-free time and reclaim your sanity.

 

Join a Drum Circle:

 

Joining a drum circle can be an incredible journey that takes you to a place of both excitement and tranquility. It doesn’t matter if you’re a seasoned musician or a complete novice -Drumming with a group is truly joyful!

When you participate in a drum circle, you become part of something bigger than yourself. Each person adds their unique beats and rhythms, creating a beautiful tapestry of sound that harmonises into one powerful rhythm. 

It’s like feeling the heartbeat of a collective energy, creating a symphony of harmony and oneness. But drumming isn’t just about creating beautiful music; it also has profound effects on your well-being.

The act of drumming helps release tension and melt away stress. The rhythmic patterns and repetitive movements calm your mind and body.

Drumming becomes an immersive experience that offers a refreshing break from the demands of everyday life. As you engage in drumming, you naturally enter a state of mindfulness and presence.

Your full attention is on the rhythm and beats, and all worries and distractions fade away. The drumming becomes a meditation, guiding you into the present moment and bringing you a deep sense of inner peace and tranquility.

Drumming is also a powerful form of emotional expression. It gives you a safe space to channel and release emotions that may be hard to put into words.

It allows you to express and process emotions, promoting emotional well-being and inner peace.

The rhythmic movements of your hands and arms awaken the flow of energy throughout your entire being. It revitalises and invigorates you, leaving you feeling more alive, centered, and grounded.

But it’s not just about the drumming itself. It’s about the community and connection that comes with it. Drum circles attract people of all ages and backgrounds, forming a supportive and inclusive community.

To join a drum circle, seek out local gatherings organised by community centers, cultural organisations, or music stores.

It’s helpful to bring your own drum or percussion instrument to fully immerse yourself in the experience. Don’t worry about being perfect or making mistakes – in a drum circle, there are no wrong notes. Just use your ears, feel the rhythm, and find your unique place within the collective flow.

 

Paint on Canvas: Calm your mind in colour 

When you are faced with a blank canvas and a tray of colours something magical happens. The stresses and worries of the day begin to fade away. Each stroke becomes a little escape, a moment of pure bliss.

As you immerse yourself in the world of painting, you’ll feel the weight of the world lift off your shoulders. It’s like a colourful therapy session that leaves you feeling lighter.

Painting is not just about the final masterpiece, it’s about the delightful journey that unfolds with each stroke. 

Of course you can create whatever you choose, however, it’s important to just take your time and enjoy the process.

As you play with colours and experiment with techniques, you’ll enter a relaxing wonderland where your creative mind takes center stage.

Let go of perfection and embrace the joy of experimentation. Play with different styles, explore new techniques, and let your intuition guide you.

Then and only once your masterpiece is eventually complete, you might just have a new piece of original art to hang on your wall. And who knows what that could be worth? 

 

Find your joy in the Kitchen 

There are two types of people in this world. Those who find cooking to be a tedious chore and those who find it an absolute joy. If you belong to the latter group, congratulations! You get to experience a culinary journey filled with pure bliss, excitement, and deliciousness every single day. Because we all have to eat.

Cooking is not merely a task to be checked off a to-do list. It’s a creative outlet that sparks passion and ignites the senses.

Cooking opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to explore and expand your culinary repertoire.

The true magic of cooking lies not only in the process but also in the shared experiences it creates. Think about the delight of preparing a meal for your loved ones or hosting a gourmet fancy pants dinner party. Friends and family gather around the table, savouring your culinary creations. 

And the immense pleasure that comes with enjoying your own creations. The first bite of a dish you’ve lovingly prepared, the explosion of flavours that dance on your taste buds, the satisfaction of knowing that you have nourished yourself and others with your culinary prowess.

By preparing your own meals, you have control over the ingredients that go into your dishes.

If you find yourself among those who find pure delight in cooking, cherish this gift.

Let the kitchen be your playground, where you dance with flavours, explore new techniques, and unleash your inner chef.

Cooking is more than nourishment; it’s an expression of love, a celebration of life, and a gateway to endless possibilities.

But the benefits of an infrared sauna extend far beyond the physical realm. As you bask in the soothing warmth, you’ll find that the tranquil environment promotes mental relaxation and stress reduction.

The meditative atmosphere of the sauna creates a space for introspection and mindfulness, allowing you to disconnect from the outside world and focus on the present moment.

It’s a time for self-reflection, introspection, and personal growth.

Add a few drops to a diffuser or create a calming chamomile tea by infusing chamomile flowers in hot water. Sipping this aromatic elixir can be a ritual of serenity, allowing you to unwind and find your inner balance.

Ylang-ylang, with its exotic and floral aroma, is renowned for its ability to promote relaxation and uplift the spirit.

Incorporate a few drops of ylang-ylang essential oil in a diffuser or mix it with a carrier oil for a calming massage experience.

The beauty of aromatherapy is that it offers a versatile range of applications. In addition to using essential oils in a diffuser, you can also enjoy their benefits in other ways.

You can also create your own personalised body oil or lotion by blending essential oils with a carrier oil or unscented moisturiser. The gentle touch of these aromatic blends on your skin can enhance your well-being and leave you feeling nourished and pampered.

The benefits of aromatherapy extend beyond the realm of relaxation. Certain essential oils, such as peppermint or citrus oils, can help invigorate the senses and boost energy levels. Others, like eucalyptus or tea tree oil, have cleansing and purifying properties, promoting a sense of freshness and clarity.

Go to see live music

There’s something truly captivating about being in the presence of talented musicians and feeling the energy of the music reverberate through your soul.

Attending live music events offers a unique and enchanting experience that transcends the ordinary. As you find your place in a crowd of music lovers, the collective excitement and anticipation fill the air. The atmosphere becomes electric, and you can’t help but feel a sense of unity and connection with those around you.

Whether it’s the raw power of rock, the soulful melodies of jazz, the infectious beats of pop, or the heartfelt lyrics of a singer-songwriter, each genre has its own way of captivating and moving you. The energy emanating from the stage, combined with the collective enthusiasm of the audience, creates an atmosphere charged with positivity and joy.

The act of attending live music events is an opportunity for self-expression and self-discovery. It’s a chance to let go of inhibitions and embrace the freedom of movement and expression. As you sway to the rhythm, dance with abandon, or simply close your eyes and let the music wash over you, you tap into a profound sense of liberation and connection with the music, the performers, and the audience.

Live music offers a chance to step away from the constant buzz of technology and immerse yourself in the present moment. As you surrender to the sounds and melodies, you enter a state of mindfulness, fully absorbed in the music and the shared experience.

In those precious moments, worries fade away, and you find solace in the harmonious vibrations that resonate deep within.

 

Listen to the music. Headphones on!

Put on a good pair of headphones and enjoy the journey that will transport you to a place of tranquility and bliss. Whether you’re taking a leisurely walk or lounging on the couch, immersing yourself in the enchanting world of music is a powerful tool for finding inner peace and inspiration.

Picture in your mind the musicians in the studio creating the music. Imagine them playing in a small bar or even in your living room playing just for you. Let your mind run free and enjoy.

Life is so full of distractions that most of us rarely really listen to a song. Every song we hear typically just washes over us and can so easily go un-noticed. Try really listening to each song. Each note, every beat. Focus on each musician who has laid their heart and soul out for you to enjoy.

Every song has a story and a meaning and can have a different experience for every listener.

As a Beatles nut, I’m still blown away by how many people still haven’t experienced the White Album or Abbey Road from start to finish. Do yourself a favour! Or perhaps discover someone new like Vanessa Forbes amazingly immersive Love Letters to the Universe and experience the relaxing wave of joy and calmness in her soothing sounds.

Focus your attention on the intricate layers of sound, the gentle harmonies, and the rhythmic patterns that weave together to create a symphony of relaxation. Close your eyes and allow the music to guide you into a state of deep relaxation.

Try listening to genres or artists you’ve never explored before. Let the unfamiliar melodies and rhythms awaken your senses and open up new avenues of relaxation and pleasure. By embracing the unknown, you create an opportunity to switch off your mind, let go of expectations, and simply enjoy the sounds that envelop you.
