Unveiling the Power of Habits: Elevating your Daily Moments for a Happier Life and Work Day.


?In today's fast-paced society, it's common to seek external sources for happiness, but the truth is, our inner state profoundly influences our outer circumstances. Investing in our inner equilibrium through daily habits can lead to a more fulfilling life. It’s not out there that needs to fill us up but what we cultivate inside that leads to more contentment.

Simple practices like taking walks in nature, meditation, and journaling can create a daily routine that transitions us from tension to relaxation. Consistency is key here; integrating these practices into our daily lives helps quiet the mind and allows us to appreciate life's simple pleasures.

As a coach, I often recommend incorporating 2 to 3 mini moments of self-care throughout the day. These brief pauses can significantly calm our overstimulated nervous systems and enhance our overall well-being.

In my online qigong and meditation sessions, we delve into cultivating stillness within, known as "the void" or "the emptiness." This inner stillness is believed to be where healing occurs, as described by Master Lin, the founder of Spring Forest Qigong. By practicing qigong, we cultivate more resilience and the ability to focus on uplifting emotions like peace and contentment. In the words of Master Chunyi Lin in the book Born A Healer: “As you practice more, your experience and feelings will be ones of perfect peace, quietness, and stillness. That is the emptiness. It is a very beautiful and very, very powerful.”

Research suggests that a focus on more positive emotions can improve our daily lives. This doesn't mean ignoring negative feelings but rather practicing to transform them, preventing them from lingering and potentially causing health issues.

Let me illustrate the power of this commitment with a personal example. When faced with a challenging relationship issue, instead of dwelling on it, I chose to shift my energy through qigong practice. Consistency in these daily practices is crucial, as it creates new energy patterns within us.

As outlined in "The Power of Habit," habits can be simple yet powerful. Taking a few minutes each day to reset can have a significant impact. For instance, integrating the heart coherence technique from the HeartMath Institute into your routine can promote more inner harmony and well-being.

Moreover, our practices with groups can also influence collective well-being. Dr. Joe Dispenza's research on group healing highlights the importance of conscious intention combined with elevated emotions. By envisioning our desired outcomes with positive emotions, we can transform stagnant energy and create profound shifts within ourselves and those around us.

In our Movement Medicine sessions, we focus on cultivating emotions like happiness, joy, and gratitude, knowing that positive emotions can bring about transformative change. Testimonials from our Healing Communi-Qi members, like Christy Prokopec, reaffirm the life-changing impact of these practices: “It really has been a life changing experience for me. I feel the universe has been guiding me since I've started Qi, or maybe I've just started to listen and become mindful. Whatever it is, I haven't felt this great in the longest time and I thank you for bringing Qi into my life.”?

Ultimately, it's in the stillness within that we find peace. We come home to our authentic selves. Just like meditation, cultivating mindfulness and uplifting emotions is a practice that requires consistency. The lasting joy derived from these practices surpasses any material possession, making it a truly invaluable investment in our well-being and one worth taking even a short moment for in your day.

Thanks Steffi -- appreciate this reminder to nurture the stillness within, "believed to be where healing occurs..." ? Regarding daily routines: thanks to a newer friend who is a bluegrass musician I've noticed that listening to banjo and/or mandolin really feels good on my brain and lifts my energy. So I've added a 5-minute bluegrass break to my day. ?? ?? ??
