WHY DO YOU LIKE to pet a dog? Or spend time in nature? Or drink a glass of lemonade on the porch? Why do you do these things? Simple: To have a moment where you feel a sense of calm, of peace.

But you can create it at will. It's not that hard to create. You don't believe me? Try it right now. Take one minute and see if you can create a sense of calm relaxation.

One minute interlude...

How did you do it? You did one of three things: relaxed your muscles, changed your breathing, or changed the content of your mind.

You have the ability to create a moment of calm any time you want.

Up until now, you haven't taken the time to do it, even though you could. But that doesn't mean you will continue doing the same thing in the future, does it?
