“Peace I leave with you.” (John 14:27)

Calmness has an extremely important role in happiness, to say the least. One solution for happiness is calmness, but how does this actually work?

First, I would be remiss if I did not at least mention the famous seven steps hinted at in Beyond Happiness Is a Choice and stated overtly in Happiness Is a Lifestyle that point toward how to be both happy and calm. They, with some additions, are:

  • Be kind toward yourself and others.
  • Focus on healthy daily behavior.
  • Challenge inaccurate, depressive, and anxious thinking moment by moment.
  • Share depressive and anxious feelings.
  • Meet dependency needs in healthy ways, not in anxiety-provoking ways (addictions, unhealthy relationships, unhealthy actions).
  • Consider the medical dimension. (More on this later)
  • Emphasize Christ. Fall in love with Christ. Let Him become your best friend.

To become calm one might want to post these steps on the mirror and every day practice a different one.

  • Which one helps you the most to become calm?

Rejoicing, On the Victory Side!
