Tools to help you feel calm and focused
Breathe gently while repeating short prayers such as "Lord, calm my heart."
Instructions:
• Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds while praying "Lord, I receive Your peace."
• Hold for 4 seconds and say "You are with me."
• Exhale slowly for 4 seconds, giving every worry to Jesus.
• Repeat for one minute, resting in God's presence.
Go further than the obvious and realise that life is beyond the four walls. Notice goodness hidden over the horizon. Hear a chorus embedded in the silence of the mind, and feel a breeze of peace in commotion. Be still and start again.
There are things you always look at but never see. Look around and count 5 things you see now and be grateful; see beauty and order in them.
Some things you touch, but it never registers in. Notice 4 things and touch them. Feel their texture and acknowledge it.
We live in a space of sounds and voices. While commotion rages, there are gentle voices within and without. Listen for 3 gentle sounds, and like a lost or trapped sheep that hears the Shepherd's voice, acknowledge it.
Scents might seem obvious, but some great scents can be identified in pollution and mixtures of scents. Now, try to identify two scents and think about what they represent.
Another great way to appreciate things is through taste. It helps to know your environment. Grab 1 something and taste it, identify it and enjoy its existence.
💡 Tip: Pause and observe: "I saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all." Thank you for life.
Speak these verses over yourself. Whisper them aloud or meditate on them until your heart feels anchored in Christ.
When anxiety rises, gently redirect your attention to practices that draw you closer to God's comfort.
A safe, private space to express your thoughts and feelings
