Stillness is the answer to success

By April 30, 20152 Comments

LotusI’ve been taking part in the Winning Women Essex blogging challenge during April and I have written about many aspects of my life and other things as well. From rock music to magical gardens, from menstrual cycles to criminal justice, I seem to have covered a lot!

So what has it all been about, and why all this stillness?

When I read about my own activities over the month, I look like a very busy lady. And those are only the things I have chosen – or dared! – to write about. I could be tired, drained, stressed and perhaps grumpy. If you know me in person, however, you will know that I am usually calm and often smiling. The secret is stillness!

In Mind Calm we say that ‘stillness is the answer to success’ and this has many meanings for me:

* Spending time in stillness keeps stress to a minimum which is vital for people who wear several hats

* Meditation helps us to let go of attachment and be present with whatever we are doing right now

* Regular meditators tend to sleep well and to need less sleep, resulting in less tiredness

* Meditation can help us to think more clearly and to be focussed when we need to be

* My meditation routine has helped me to be more productive and efficient in less time

Taking time to sit and practise Mind Calm at least twice a day means that I can juggle my roles, let go of the things I can’t do anything about and relax and have fun in between.

If this sounds like something you need in your life, perhaps we should talk. You can find me on social media, by signing up for Tranquil News or via email. Come and share the stillness!
