Let Peace Whirl!

I have this today, inspired by an amazing coach, Anna Meck.

It is easy to get distracted and confused by the whirl of external demands or competing internal conversations. Yet, it is possible to be at Peace in the whirl by focusing on an internal point, a touchstone that keeps you calm in the midst of the whirl. Whirling dervishes do this to connect deeply to a spiritual point; it allows them to twirl for hours without getting dizzy. The whirling keeps them focused internally!

Imagine today having a deep internal point of focus. It could be a commitment, a person, a loving thought. When things get crazy, focus on this internal point of Peace. Then, let the whirling begin!

Love,

Darlene

Enjoying the Heat!

There's an old saying, "If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen"!

Rather than leaving, I recommend practicing Peace in the heat. Instead of "ain't it awful", replace your underlying thought about heat as bad, with one of heat as necessary, good and even essential. Heat is what forges steel and ripens tomatoes!

Be a tomato today. Imagine loving heat!

Love,

Peace Report Cards!

Would you like to see if the product you want to purchase is working against Peace?

If you do, go to www.enoughproject.org where they keep track of the supply chains of tech companies to see if their raw material purchases are financing war; a sort of Peace report card. If you don't like their Peace grade, be sure to send an email to the company telling them why you didn't buy!

Don't you just love it when you can shop AND empower Peace?

I do!

Love,

The Most Powerful Way to Create Peace.........

The most powerful way to create Peace (or anything) is to first Imagine it! Imagination trumps information every time. Even more powerful still, WEmagine it!
My Imagination is powerful and OUR collective WEmagination is even more so.

Will you WEmagine Peace today?

Declare Peace!

Human beings judge and evaluate automatically, continuously AND UNCONSCIOUSLY: "This is bad, that is good, she is cute, he is boring, this will end poorly, blah, blah, blah......."!If you don't think so, pay attention to your thoughts for 10 minutes.

What if, instead of judging and evaluating, we declared that Peace is possible each moment, replacing unconscious judgments with CONSCIOUS declarations of possibility? As in, "he/she/this is the possibility of Peace"!

Catch yourself judging today and replace your judgment with a declaration of Peace.
Better yet, walk around with a post it note on your face reminding you to only declare Peace.

Willing to look a little funny for Peace? I am!

Love,

Darlene
