Beliefs you should let go to find inner peace

Inner peace is something we all crave. It’s funny how we struggle to find something that is within us. Inner peace means freeing your mind from worry and negative thoughts. Situations might occur when things don’t go as planned which might shake your self-confidence or shatter your happiness.

One of the most tangible examples of this is the pandemic, where many people suffered the loss of their loved ones or their businesses. This has led people in search of inner peace now more than ever, as mental health issues such as stress, depression, and anxiety are increasing day by day. In this article, we will discuss some ways one can achieve inner peace.

What is Inner Peace?

When the mind enters into a wary mystical and physical state of calm to endure life’s inadequacy, inner peace is found. It is mostly related to happiness, serenity, and ecstasy.

However, these are temporary states; while walking on the path of tranquility, you overcome the turbulent waters of ambiguity, sorrow, and unhappiness.

How do you find inner peace?

In today’s busy schedule, hectic lifestyle, and everyday challenges, inner peace is lost! You can eradicate negative thoughts if you accept that you cannot control everything.

Start accepting things as they are, and then you will be on the right track to achieve inner peace. Here you will discover thoughts that may be disrupting your inner peace.

1. “I should never get angry”

Our whole life, we are taught anger brings negativity or proves that you are weak if you get angry. We are taught that the key to happiness is to hide the anger and think positively.

The root of personal development is positive thinking.  But, is getting angry always wrong? Sometimes anger brings out your suppressed feelings. We should be taught to harness the energy in the right way, instead of pushing it away.

2. “If I express my emotions freely, people will think I am weak”

Growing up, we are taught to hide emotions when facing the cruel world. We are taught that showing emotions, especially happy emotions like joy and excitement, is a sign of vulnerability.

However, not expressing our emotions can bring out negative emotions such as fear, anger, and sadness. It is natural to express emotions, for it brings out your personality – your true self that people appreciate and respect. 

3. “I am not good enough”

We learn something new every day. Our life is about building a better self as we move forward. Sometimes, we might feel like we don’t belong here or we are not good enough.

But, we should always remember that instead of giving up or feeling sorry, we should try to learn and push ourselves to become a better version of ourselves.

4. “I should be happier right now”

Humans tend to compare naturally and are never satisfied with what they have. Whenever we are not happy, we look at what we don’t have and feel very upset and wonder why we are not happy like the next person. 

Remember, happiness isn’t something that stays forever; it comes and goes, like a roller coaster ride. We should try to find happiness in little experiences, and try to keep a positive mind instead of comparing our lives with others.

 5. “When I get what I want, I will be happy”

Human desires are endless. Once we achieve something, we move on to the next one. Usually, there is a concept in the human mind that when I get certain things I wish for I will be happier.

Although there is nothing we need to be happy. If you want to overcome such feelings, you need to be more practical and live in the present and you will naturally experience happiness there.

 6. “I am ashamed of my past that totally sucked”

Not everyone’s life goes perfect. We all have past experiences that we don’t like. It is in our hands to move further and learn from our past experiences and make our present something we can be proud of.

These memories are part of us, we should accept them and take them as lessons. Your past experiences have shaped you into the person you are today, so don’t be ashamed of them.  

7. “I need to be doing something right now”

In this competitive world, we feel the need to be productive at every moment. We sacrifice our peace and rest for work. We tend to take calls in the middle of dinner or before going to bed or even during office breaks. Such habits can disturb the inner calmness a person needs and result in a restless nature.

Conclusion

We live in a world where there are constant changes, and we are trying to keep up with these constant changes. In the midst of it, we forget about our inner peace.

We, as the human race, have become so competitive, trying to achieve the next big thing that we have forgotten to take a minute from our busy lives and enjoy the journey.

We ourselves have ruined the inner peace. Maybe we should rethink and stop for a second, and enjoy and appreciate this wonderful life we have. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.
