Happiness, an Adventure Within

Holistic Lifestyle, Life, Mind, New Consciousness July 3, 2015 Imane Lahlou
Happiness, an Adventure Within

© DeerFields

Regardless of our country of birth or our culture and customs, we all aspire to happiness. Happiness is more than just a feeling; it is a state of mind that evokes love, peace, health, equilibrium and harmony. Indeed, happiness is a world unto itself, colored by our presence, our very essence.

Happiness exists outside the world of words, it is the garden we nurture with love, and it carries the imprint of the experiences that have shaped our life. Humanity has always sought to understand happiness and what it means to be alive. Profound works of philosophy, literature and legends passed down through the ages reflect the thought that has been given to these matters.

 

The maze of today

Today, the search for meaning takes place in an environment that is changing at a dizzyingly rapid rate. The last fifty years have marked a turning point in human history, and it can sometimes feel as though we’ve been swallowed up by this technological wave that governs our new society. A phenomenal maelstrom of information and visual stimulation crowds out the thoughts of adults and children alike, devouring much of our time. How to resist getting lost in this maze that takes up so much of our mental energy as it pulls us inexorably away from our essential selves? This desire to know and love our true selves is often lost as we balance on the precipice. And how can we understand what we don’t know?

Happiness, the basis of our radiance and our ability to flourish, is an adventure that invites us to explore life’s many facets. We seek happiness in all sorts of places: relationships, books, workshops, retreats, healthy eating, breathing, movement and meditation. Our travels through life produce experiences that inspire us to question the true meaning of happiness. Is it the product of our professional and personal achievements? Or is it the mirror reflecting our attitude when we face the painful or joyous experiences of life?

We all face difficulties: living through illness, losing a loved one, pain, suffering, fears, insecurity, or dependence on others. Happiness cannot depend on external forces. The search for happiness is an invitation to embark on the greatest journey of your life. It is a journey of discovery, in which you learn about the thoughts, beliefs and perceptions that shape your destiny. Does your interior world live up to your expectations? Does it reflect who you really are?

 

The purpose of your life

The adventure starts when you make the decision to undo limiting, destructive beliefs, fears and insecurities, and begin to see love in all things. Happiness is not a destination; it is the expression of an interior journey. Breathing, meditation and movement help you create an intimate relationship with yourself. These activities inspire you to discover your essence, and to reveal the purpose of your life while they shape your work, your dreams and your accomplishments. You begin to listen to the messages sent by your body and your heart.

How mindful are you?❤️ When we are mindful, How mindful are you?❤️ 

When we are mindful, we are fully present in every moment and we give our very best. We are no longer dependent on what others think of us, because we have recognized who we really are.

We cannot find the key to happiness in suppression nor in the realization of what our minds produce in terms of ideas and desires. It is the spark of mindfulness that can ignite the light of understanding in us.

✨Today’s article (link in bio) reflects on how the practice of mindfulness can help you to calm your fears, thoughts and emotions.

Have you ever been lucky enough to experience a sa Have you ever been lucky enough to experience a sacred ceremony led by a shaman; the people who use the forces of nature and universal alignments for healing purposes and ceremonies?

Shamans are found in most of the indigenous cultures, such as Native American tribes (i.e. Aumatas, Mapuches, Lakotas, Hopis), in some Buddhism traditions or the Beduins in Africa. They are the healers and in many circumstances the spiritual leaders.

In most traditions the ceremonies are based on four or five elements, highlighted in today's article by @christelle.chopard which provides an introduction to Shamanism (link in bio).

"We are busy in relationships with others, but wha "We are busy in relationships with others, but what about creating a relationship with our own thoughts?" - Claudia Roth. 

Are you exhausted from over-thinking everything, in particular your relationships with others? 

Most days and most of the time, our minds chatter. One minute we are happy, and the next we can feel irritated, upset, anxious or fearful. 

Thoughts arrive, and we are forever subject to their force, living our days and nights as slaves to our thoughts.

Today's Food For Your Soul article by @claudiaroth (link in bio) explores how to break-free from this suffering and shares tips for what to do when you feel overwhelmed.

How often do you unleash your creativity? Allowing ourselves to be creative can help us in the quest to live a joyful, balanced life.

Art and creativity is a deeply grounding practice. When we create, we feel with our body. We can play, get messy with materials, make things, create pieces of art with our hands. You are in the moment, enjoying the freedom to play and connect with your essential self. And this is a deeply nourishing joy.

Today's article by @isabelle__issa (link in bio) reflects on how to bring more creativity into your life.
