1 小时 23 分钟So, ever wonder what it would be like to walk through any given moment, any given day, and have a near magical ability to just find yourself at peace, to dial in a state of calm, no matter what the circumstances around you were, whether it was mayhem at work, mayhem in the family, a groundless day to day experience of life, of the world, if you had the ability to just kind of touch down into a place of grace and ease at will.
So the last few years have been kind of tough, pretty tough for a lot of us and for a lot of reasons.
Perpetual groundlessness, high stakes uncertainty.
We tend to experience this as spin or anxiety or fear, doubt, unease, inability to just relax like calm, just straight up packed up and left the building.
And the thing is, our ability to come back to a place of calm is so central to our ability to also live good lives and to access the state of presence to be here now, that allows us to even notice what is good and true and nourishing, even when much around us is out of our control and maybe really hard.
So how do we access that state of calm, that state of grace and ease, when the world around us just seems to keep ripping it away?
How do we reclaim control over our ability to access peace, peace of mind?
That is what I'm talking about today in this final installment of our 2022 Jump Start series.
So if you've missed any of the earlier episodes, which were pretty much once a week through the month of January, like how to accomplish big things, how to feel more alive, how to bring purpose and possibility into your work, then go ahead and be sure to check out those episodes.
Download them in your listening app so they're teed up and ready to listen to right after this one.
And just like those earlier episodes, we're also including a link in the show notes to a free, downloadable one page.
I know I keep saying it's one page, but we keep making them bigger and longer and more robust for you.
But a PDF that shares all of the seven techniques that I'm going to talk about today.
So you can really just listen and not worry about taking notes, not worry about forgetting anything.
And one last thing, towards the latter part of this episode, I'm going to share a guided visualization designed to bring you back to a place of deep calm, something that you can listen to and return to whenever you want to.
So be sure to listen all the way.
And you may want to tap the icon to save this episode in your app so you can return to it whenever you want to drop back into that peaceful place on demand.
And of course, a quick reminder, I am not a mental health professional.
The ideas and the framework and the exercises that I'm going to share with you, well, they come from the world of research and clinical application.
And if you are in genuine distress, please be sure to check with your friends, family and the many freely available mental health resources and a qualified mental health professional.
