For years my girls have asked me to make a wish list at Christmas time.  Every year I have put peace of mind at the top of this list.  This past year as I was considering my list I realized I have peace of mind much more than I don't.  It was cause for me to stop a moment and contemplate.  Here are a few of the things that I think greatly contribute to peace of mind.

Health of body, mind and spirit - What am I doing to take care of my physical health.  Are there things that need my attention?  How do I stinulate and nurture my mind?  Do I read things of interest? Is there a class I have been wanting to take?  Whether or not I am religious, how do I care for my spirit?  Do I spend time in nature?  Do I have a spiritual routine?

Mindfulness - How often do I live in the present moment?  Am I present to myself? Am I present in my relationships? How can I become more present? Now is how.

Acceptance - What is acceptance? What in my life needs my acceptance?  How do I accept the things that are difficult to accept? What is unacceptable?  How do I distinguish between what is unacceptable and what I don't want to accept?

Authenticity -  Am I being true to myself? Who am I authentically?

Values - What are my values?  What do I value most?  How do I determine my priorities?

Fun - What is fun for me?  How do I have fun with the most important people in my life?  What keeps me from having fun in my life?

Gratitude - What am I grateful for?  How can I incorporate gratitude into my daily life.

Focus - What do I focus on in my life?  What am I focussed on right now?  Is my focus from moment to moment bringing me peace of mind? How do I focus on what brings me peace of mind?

Surround yourself with peaceful people.
