5 Minute Mojo

Eckhart Tolle Helps Us Understand the Difference Between Happiness and Peace

Life can be challenging at times, but it never has to get to a point where you throw your hands up and give up.  Many people think that life is against them.  The truth is, you can bounce back from anything.  You can avoid becoming a victim, now and forever.  Lets talk about it.

Even if you haven't taken a relaxing shower, you know how soothing water can be.  And if you are able to put your preconceived notions behind, then you can access the sense of calm a relaxing bath can provide.  Today I talk about the benefits of a soothing soak.

Do you want to know a huge energy waster?  It's trying to convince people that your way of living is the best.  You may have the best intentions in mind, but the sooner you realize that others will do what they choose to do, the sooner you become calmer.  Besides, your way is only best for you.

When I am changing at the gym to workout I typically hear fear-drenched ads about identity theft yammering on the TV.  Guess what, there is no such thing as security; from theft, fire, sickness or even death.  You are never going to be completely safe.  But, do you want to know something?  That realization brings with it an amazing amount of peace.  Let's talk about it.

I am a very relaxed man, for the most part.  But even I am prone to stress.  What stresses me out the most?  Being late.  I hate to be late.  In the times I am the most agitated, invariably it stems from racing to get to an appointment on time.  If you struggle with being habitually late, then you are going to want to listen to today's episode.

 I'm not going to tell you what those three words right now.  I want you to know how saying them will make you calmer.  You'll be fighting your ego all the way, but when you are victorious, you will be one calm victor.

On Monday I talked about the difference between a sound and a noise, but I didn't talk about how to perceive a noise as a sound.  Today, I do just that. Come listen.

It's no wonder that there are so many CD's that have nature sounds on them; it's because they are so relaxing.  Which is the most calming? In my mind, I think it's the Ocean.  Come find out for yourself Become a super-fan of ZEN commuter and 5 Minute mojo and receive bonuses exclusively for Patreon subscribers. THANKS FOR LISTENING!

Have you ever been to a spa before?  If you have, do you remember the music they were playing?  If it was like most places, it was calming.  Let's experience some of that today.

They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  Well, sight isn't the only sense that can perceive beauty.  Today I talk about the difference between sound and noise, so that you can use the definition to become calmer.

Most people think that other people and circumstances mess with their peace of mind.  The hard cold truth is that our own thoughts and perceptions create our reality and ultimately, our calm.  Let's talk about it.

The words I am talking about are not swears or even slanderous.  They are words you use everyday, and to my point, each time you use them you may feel a tinge of uneasiness.  Let's talk about them and agree to limit their use.

Some people have an easier time forgiving others, than they do forgiving themselves.  The outcome of holding on to a grudge, hurt or transgression is anger and tension.  Neither of which will lead to lasting calm.  Today I invite you to listen to an episode dedicated to helping you finally let go of the you from the past.

There are places that simply create a sense of serenity.  An art gallery is a perfect example.  Let't talk about it.

I am going to be purposely cryptic as i talk about this episode for one very good reason.  Those who have a tough time getting behind the topic of today but be best served stepping outside their comfort zones.  Today I talk about one thing that always brings me to my calm space.

Some people ( myself included, back in the day) hae a short fuse. They blow up at the slightest provocation.  Other people are less likely top fly off the handle.  Why is that?  I have a theory that came to me in a meditation that might explain it.  Come listen.

We try and fool ourselves sometimes.  We have habits and values that are deeply ingrained.  However, many times they are not in alignment with who we want to become.  Such is the case with becoming calmer.  It seems like it is something that everyone should want.  But is it something you want?  Today I talk about the disconnect between what you want and what you think you want.
