Reading a good book, watching a good movie, listening to good music (obviously good is in my opinion), watching a sunrise or sunset, sittin' on the dock of a bay, scenery, art, a science project, children trick-or-treating, driving in the country, flying, sailing, swimming, being with friends or family (not always), contemplating the lint in my navel, etc. There is a lot that I find inner peace from. A smily emoji. 🙂

Creating music...

Gazing into the night sky; and especially at the moon--in all its phases.

A really good porn flick!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I was actually thinking the same thing as a comical reply right before I clicked and saw your comment.

Listening to my positive affirmations CD from: How to Change Your Life in 7 Days. Or is that hypnotherapy CD? Anyway it works for me 🙂

Hiking. But playing ukulele comes in a close second.

Putting on headphones and listening to music, gaming and just basically retreating indoors. I detach from the real world audibly and visibly. I also don’t watch television but just surf the web.

Watching the stars at night and looking for U.F.O.s,and hugging my dog.

For me it's scuba diving. I leave all of life's problems on the surface, and I get to relax and focus on the task at hand.

Rock climbing because it demands such a high level of presence. Cross country skiing for different reasons. Always helps to be outside and moving.

Since walking through new places in the mountains is getting out of my reach, and my motorcycle has been out of commission for years now, driving on long trips provides the best grounding and centering for me. When I can't drive the act of remembering finding and experiencing spiritual places is greatly relaxing, at least until I go the one step farther a let myself get depressed for not being able to be at those places in person.

Smelling my dog's head.

Sleep

I'd have to say that I have a few.
Gardening, Doing Artworks/Writing Poetry and in winter chopping firewood would rate the highest if there were a list.

good stuff

Hiking out in nature.... and reading a book with a purring cat on m lap.

Mediation. Focusing the mind to be ever present.

Picking up a guitar and play some music.

Hiking. Getting away from any religious input (try counting every instance you receive religious/church input in a day; it is an amazing high number). Also climbing hills and mountains. 3 plus hours on the golf course is wonderful too, almost no religious attempts out there competing forvmy mind space. Biking. Caring for the granddaughter, and equipping her with critical thinking tools.

Reading and writing with pen & paper.

Walking also

Walking beside the rolling river behind my house. Seeing what the latest high river has deposited on the shores. Things change out here moment by moment. Trees... The huge boulders sticking out from the cliffs, the wildlife... It's magical almost.

There is also a place... Ruins from a Ferry business about a mile or so down river. The guys wife (presumably) planted daffodils there hundreds of years ago. They have since grown wild and take up acres and acres of land. Every April a lot of the neighbors make the trek to see if they have all bloomed yet. It is nothing short of amazing!

Not listening to people who ask dumbfuck questions.

Not really because they are unnecessary to me and may not be to anyone else. For example “Do you think it’s going to rain tomorrow?” Don’t know, don’t care. “Is Uncle George taking Julia to the garden centre tomorrow?” Don’t know, don’t care. “Does God exist” Don’t know, don’t care

I don't think I've ever felt it, or if I have, the memory of it has faded. I'm not sure what would bring it about now.
