The happiness that we can create


All of that "happiness" It can be created by ourselves by simple methods such as

-Be satisfied with what you have because people who are not satisfied with what they have tend to be unhappy. The cause is always comparing yourself to others or looking for your own shortcomings.

-Be optimistic and have positive thoughts because when you think about good things and think positively, your mind will be clear.

-Always practice giving because when we give what we have, a feeling of contentment in the heart will arise for the giver. It is training yourself to sacrifice and reduce your desire to have.




-Do what you love. Doing what we love will make us happy and proud of ourselves. When problems or obstacles arise, they will not give up.

-Take care of your own health. It means taking care of your health in every dimension. It is both physical health and mental health.

-Reward yourself: Relax yourself, set aside time to socialize with family, friends, relatives or buy yourself a gift. Find time to take a vacation and travel to other provinces.

-Find something to anchor your mind to.

Each life has both happiness and suffering mixed together. Therefore, we should find a friend or someone with whom we can suffer together. Find someone you love and who loves you, ready to help, support, comfort, and nourish each other's hearts.

-Find your purpose in life.

Dreaming is not a problem, but the most important thing is to have dreams that are close to reality. Dreaming makes us more creative, motivated, and sets goals in life. Then take action to reach the goal. If we can do this, we will have success and fulfillment and mental happiness.

-meditation

Some people call meditation happiness, others call it peace of mind. Which in addition to being something that has been taught for a long time in Buddhism. Modern science has also researched the happiness of meditation. People who have never done it before might start by meditating for 5-10 minutes a day first.

Benefits of meditation and how to meditate effectively

Origin of meditation

The practice of meditation has been around for many thousands of years. Initially the goal was tied to religion to achieve meditation and access to the mystical power of life. Times have changed and meditation has become a way to relieve stress and anxiety that we are all familiar with these days.


Benefits of meditation

Meditation is based on the principle of merging the body and mind. Makes those who meditate feel relaxed both physically and mentally. Even just a short period of meditation is quite beneficial and is also a technique that helps with mental and emotional therapy very well.

-Increase awareness of things in front of you and be mindful of the present.

-Open new perspectives in dealing with stressful situations

-Increase stress management skills

-Helps the brain be more clear.

-Reduces negative emotions

-Increase patience and tolerance

-Promote imagination and creativity


How to meditate effectively for beginners

-Choose a place with a quiet atmosphere and a feeling of relaxation, free from distractions.

-The goal is to start meditating from a short period of time, about 5 or 10 minutes.

-Sit in a comfortable position and be confident that if you sit for a long time you will not feel tired. There is no need to sit cross-legged to meditate. May sit in a chair, recline, or do not need to sit if it is a walking meditation practice.

-Begin meditating by focusing your awareness on the in-and-out breath.

-Be mindful of the thoughts that arise while meditating. Whenever I feel like my concentration on my breathing has slipped away. Slowly return your focus to your original breathing.

-Look at various thoughts that arise in the form of observation and perception. Don't get so caught up in thinking that you develop negative feelings about yourself. You shouldn't tell yourself to stop thinking about everything because this will only create more thoughts.

-Gradually end the meditation and return to normal. If your eyes are closed, slowly open them, then remain calm for a moment to observe the sounds or surroundings. Explore the sensations that occur in the body as well as the emotions and thoughts that arise after meditation.


At first, many people may find it difficult to meditate. There is no need to force yourself to do it longer than you can. You should do it 3-5 minutes a day and then gradually. Increase the time little by little. Because the timing of meditation is not as effective as the regularity of doing it. Many people who practice meditation find that meditating every day for just 10 minutes a day.

It helps to feel calm and more mindful in living life.




-Not expecting

We often hear that letting go is a good thing. What is true letting go? Good letting go starts with 'Manage your own expectations' first It could be as simple as lowering expectations for small, unimportant things. If we do small things well, we can then 'challenge ourselves' by adjusting our expectations for big things. Especially things that we're not sure we're ready to do.
