Peace of mind

Now is the time for peace of mind. Even more so if there is too much on your mind or misfortune strikes.

Peace of mind “is a feeling of calm or not being worried” according to the Cambridge Dictionary. Merriam-Webster describes it as “a feeling of being safe or protected”. Both definitions refer to one’s mental state rather than any disturbance of the peace. Nuance aside, the linguists thus agree that one can have peace of mind even during a threat and after injury.

This website is built for and named after you. From conception, you grow to one day become master of your life. As captain, you are in charge. You may have a crew at your command. But no one bosses you around anymore. In other words, anyone around may be as harmful or helpful as they can. But only you decide how to proceed. A useful method is to discern the physical (awareness) from the metaphysical (consciousness). 

Awareness

The information through sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch or the internal senses leads to awareness.

Beware when you search for the term awareness online. There you are mostly misguided into the realm of emotions, intuitions and beliefs that are actually beyond human sensory input.

Consciousness

The emotional or rational meaning that the mind gives to information leads to consciousness.

What goes around online as awareness, is mostly part of consciousness.

Of course, these are basic notions of awareness and consciousness. Many more complex definitions go around. Some aim to clarify and others just obfuscate. We’ll get to those along your path to peace of mind.

Journaling

Keeping notes of your observations, decisions and accomplishments helps to make better choices instead of repeating failures. This journaling practice also frees up memory for recollections that lift up your spirits in hard times.

The awareness trap is learning enough about a subject in order to think that you get it right, but not enough to know that you are actually wrong.

Supernatural

One may limit one’s understanding of consciousness to nature, or believe that some supernatural force must be at work in the mind. Both frames of mind include questions about origin and infinity. How did the known universe come about and more interestingly, as toddlers incessantly ask, why?

Suffice to say here that barely enough awareness and imperfect consciousness, already help ease most of your (inner) troubles and find peace of mind.
