Sunday meditations are an opportunity to come together, simply to sit in silence together. Jaya John’s work doesn’t speak much about meditation or silence, but this quote pointed right in the direction of finding this kind of silence that we can call home:
“Peace knows your address. Make sure that you are home. Be present within yourself. Move in. Open the windows. Let in the light. Freshen up the place. Make yourself a place you’d like to stay. Be a homebody.” – Jaiya John
Peace knows where you live, but it will only find you there if you make sure that you are in fact home. This is so damn beautiful in its simplicity. Seek out your own silence, meditate regularly, do all the work that you can to make yourself more comfortable in your own skin and safe with your own thoughts. That’s where peace will find you.
So don’t let Monday come without having connected to your soul.
“The reason Friday feels so good is because your soul wants a vacation. Don’t let Monday come without having taken one. A day of deep, peaceful breathing can be more replenishing than a week of travel and all the stresses it can bring. Sometimes, getting away happens by staying home, inside your soul.” – Jaiya John
Give your body and mind a bit of time to soak in the bathtub of your soul. Let your soul feed you, come back again and again until it soaks all the way into your bones. Then you will get up and stand differently, walk differently, and see differently.
Here are some guiding mantras to keep in mind on this journey to inner peace:
- My soul is my sanctuary. I choose to cultivate peace within myself.
- I am present. I find calmness by quieting my mind and connecting with the present moment.
- I breathe deeply. I nourish my body and soul with each conscious breath.
- Peace is my birthright. I choose peace, every day, in every moment.
Have a beautiful Sunday peeps!
