Reinvent Your New Year’s Resolution This Coming 2012

Posted by Dorothy under Community Interests, Interesting Readsno responses

Christmas is gone and most of you will be thinking of your new year’s resolution. The usual ones are to lose some weight and eat healthier, to earn more money, to stop smoking and drinking or to spend more time with your loved ones. All of these seem slightly self concerned although it may indirectly benefit the people around you. So, let us move away from all of these mundane resolution and spice up year 2012 by introducing a different flavour to your new year’s pledge: one which is more in tune with being charitable. To give you a head start, think about volunteering at an orphanage, an old folks home, an animal shelter or a community centre. Such kind acts will benefit you and your receiver, emotionally and mentally. Please give this noble suggestion of mine some thought and hopefully you attain new experiences for 2012. Have a great year ahead, one full of happiness and good health.

Defining Inner Peace

Posted by Dorothy under Community Interests, Interesting Reads, Natural Highs, Philosophy, Wellnessno responses

The world over have been talking about having or creating inner peace. What inner peace means varies between individuals. With the growing consumerism, a big number of people will say that having lots of money gives them a certain feeling of peace. How far does one go with obtaining money has no ends but that certainly has nothing to do with obtaining inner peace. Whether you are rich, poor or of middle class, healthy or sick, inner peace can still be yours. Here’s a guide to the meaning of inner peace:

The 12 Symptoms Of Inner Peace” © 1984 by Saskia Davis

• A loss of ability to worry
• Frequent overwhelming episodes of appreciation
• Contended feelings of connectedness with others and with nature
