Serenity is an inner equilibrium that helps us face life and recover from setbacks. But how to find peace? Self-knowledge and work to identify, embrace, and transcend limiting fears are the first steps. You get all our advise.

Our defects, like our strengths, are shaped by our surroundings. No one is responsible for our imperfections; they're there and shouldn't be disguised. Though bothersome, they make us unique and can be improved. Accepting one's weaknesses takes time and effort.

Accepting our discrepancies is part of finding inner harmony. This is about understanding your behaviour, not judging yourself. Imagine something uncomfortable and try to figure out what's holding you back. This will help you interpret your actions.

We frequently think life would be easier if we were prettier, taller, smarter... Depreciating ourselves prevents us from reaching balance. Find your strengths and develop them. It might be painting, singing, or crafts! Focusing on your strengths and interests will calm you.

In addition to solving problems, we might strive to understand what caused them. Because the circumstance hurts us, we often blame others. However, we contributed to the issue. Understanding how we caused this problem helps us comprehend our behaviour and non-unconscious motivations. From there, can we change things?

Fear and inferiority make us rapidly criticise others. Instead, what if we looked for inspiration in this person? We share at the meeting because seeing the good in others helps us see it in ourselves.

We delay numerous undertakings out of fear of failure. Mistakes and failures teach. We can dare and take chances. Failure is part of life and not a big issue. We too often stay stuck in romantic, professional, and family circumstances for fear of failure and judgement of ourselves and others, even when we have the resources to overcome and modify them.

When you're in a circumstance you can't escape, ask for help to broaden your perspective. Friends, family, and even a professional can help you stand back, choose, and move forward.

Small reminders of happiness make us realise we have no right to grumble or feel unhappy. We have the right to suffer, even for something trivial. Accepting that we feel horrible and have the right to feel bad helps us overcome challenges.

Perhaps you regret past mistakes that weigh on you today. Instead of questioning “why” you did that or “why” you're in a bad circumstance, ask “how” to advance. What are actionable steps?

Meditation helps us become aware of ourselves, our surroundings, and our experiences. Try for five minutes a day: sit up straight in a chair in a quiet area, set a phone timer to avoid checking the time.

Focus on your nose, chest, or stomach breathing and let your thoughts flow without trying to stop them. Gradually increase this time. Meditation will help you become aware of your daily experiences and find inner equilibrium.
