One purpose of creating inner peace within yourself is to have a reservoir to dip into when you are in aggravating situations. I’m able to just repeat the word peace quietly within myself and touch the depth of inner peace that I have so far created. It gives me a frame a reference to remind me I can choose my reaction and to remind me of the choices I prefer. Or if I do get overwhelmed in the moment, it gives me a head start for returning to the balance I have achieved. (I’ll post this as well as having added it to the Inner Peace page, just in case updating that page didn’t generate an email to the subscribers.)
