The LK Power of Peacefulness as explained by Deer
Peace begins with good friends, good food, and a safe place to enjoy them
‘Munch, munch, munch.’
Excuse me if I am talking with my mouth full. Winter time requires quite a bit of grazing to get in my calories. But I did want to tell you about my Loving Kindness Power. Peacefulness. I think it will bring you something very special that will nourish you and then radiate out to include others. But the quality of Peacefulness first fills you up with LK Power. So have Turtle-like Patience as I snack and fill you in on the wonderful qualities Peacefulness brings.
These days there is so much happening. So much to learn and to do. Family and friends to talk with, things to read and learn, projects to complete. Meals to cook and rooms to clean. Oh, and games to play and fun to be had too. Everyone is so busy.
Too busy.
Not enough time to just hang out with their friends and eat a good meal together. ‘Munch munch munch.’ Deer know what is important… good friends, good food, and a safe place to enjoy both of these important things. Once we have them taken care of it is easy to be peaceful. But if we start thinking about all these other things we could be doing — well, then we can feel the stress start to rise.
So try on some Peacefulness instead. Spend some time today just thinking about what you absolutely need to do. I bet it will be a similar list to our Deer List. Time with family and friends, good meals and a comfortable hollow in which to shelter.
And you can still do more. You can and you will. But whenever things become stressful, see if you can pull back to these three important things.
Your herd, meals, and your home.
Oh, and you could also try the Care of Creatures Loving Kindness visualization as well. Peaceful Loving Kindness is wonderful to share.
TRY THIS AT HOME
Today’s LK Challenge: Share the LK Power of Deer with family and friends. Practice peacefulness by focusing on being rather than doing. Allow the Loving Kindness of the air you breath, the water you drink, and the food you eat to sustain you. In this moment, you have all you need to thrive.
You can also listen to the Care of Creatures Loving Kindness Activation.
This is Day 10 of the Secret Storyworld’s 28 Day Care of Creatures Loving Kindness (LK) Challenge. We hope you will join us all month to see how far LK can spread.
