That is called the peace balance. We all have a peace centre within...it is sometimes tough to maintain it...we can and do go one way or the other. We can have peace...we can choose peace. And the more we do, the more we spread it as a vibration for others to copy.:)
God bless, J

I hadn't heard that term before, peace balance, at least not that I can remember. Can you tell me more about it?

In response to personal development posted by coachjerry:When we hear someone is out of whack with their world and we are seeking to find solutions...the key is balance. That has always been so.
If we have centre within ourselves (which we can and do emphasize in our lives) then we can 'choose' to remain at peace or we can choose to be out of peace. All is about balance.
Just my personal thoughts....
God bless,J

Your message struck a chord. I once wrote an article entitled Peace is a Choice. Like your reference, I was referring to the individual choice to be at peace or at internal conflict.
If you were counseling someone regarding the choice of peace versus conflict, what would you tell them to do to be more peaceful?

I think we have the tools within ourselves. But we have a free will choice to use them, or not. All change takes work on our part. Be prepared to make the changes for yourself...there is no magic pill to changes.
Begin each day with an affirmation. Any positive thought has the ability to set our mind for the day in positive mode.
Of course, the stresses of the day can unsettle this thought...so we can affirm again. Then just before sleep affirm your own good again. It just may keep your dreams sweet.
Ritually I begin my day with affirmation and protection. The protection exercise I use is visualization:
Visualize a bubble (similar to one blown from a child's soap bubble pipe complete with the rainbow patch...rainbows are such magical, mystical symbols of bridges, connection, communication, and complete with a pot of gold at the end for prosperity). Realize its ability to filter all negativity...from within or without...keeping all thoughts sweet.
I was reminded recently of a saying...keep your words sweet...you never know when you may have to eat them.
The other tool is meditation. There are many reasons for meditation and a purpose to each one. Learn what works to keep your mind settled and meditate in that fashion.
God bless, J

Thank you, that's a wonderful description of a peace center.
One thing I often do to get back to my peace center is to think of three good things that have happened that day. They don't have to be big things, just things that have happened that are pleasing.
Then spend a few moments considering why these things were pleasant. This brief intervention always helps me feel better, more peaceful.
Thanks so much for your thoughtful contribution.

There is a DVD out right now called The Secret. Trailers can be found at: www.thesecret.tv
It is a powerful presentation by a variety of professionals in their fields (from coaching, science, philosophy, etc.) on the law of attraction. What we think we become. That which we dwell upon, we will manifest in our lives (from the Course in Miracles).
God bless, J

Yes, I hear alot about The Secret but haven't seen it myself yet. My favorite source for law of attraction (other than my own experiences) is Jerry and Esther Hicks. Their site is loaded with good information, including some free downloads that are excellent. I regularly read their quarterly newsletter and have puchased several of their books. I recommend them.

Esther Hicks was a part of the DVD The Secret...along with other professionals in coaching (John Grey - Men are from Mars, Woman are from Venus) There were also some with science backgrounds and reputations, as well as religious leaders. It is well worth checking out.
God bless, J
