Daily Question, June 19

Is there a special place that makes you feel peaceful and calm, and that you can “visit” in your mind when in need of peace? Where is that place?

  • Linda

    The desert.

  • Verena

    whenever I am able to open myself to beauty, which can be found in the most ordinary places……whenever I find stillness… beauty and stillness seem to be interconnected….witnessing acts of kindness….a tender heart 💛 is the golden key 🔑

  • Nina

    I can only find that peaceful Zen place when I meditate. I’m there in that place when I quiet my mind and am completely quiet and still.

  • Elizabeth M Jones

    My little house in the Wairarapa.

    There is a state park with a beautiful lake and beach not far from where I live. We like to take the kids there as much as possible in the summer. It’s great to have a little paradise nearby.

    Cades Cove. In the western end of The Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It is a lovely peaceful place full of trees, flowers, rivers, authentic log cabins, bears, deer, and quiet beauty. It harkens back to days long before there ever was a national park there. One can feel the spirits of its original inhabitants in the surviving Primitive Baptist and Methodist church’s with their historical cemeteries beside them. There is also a Confederate Cemetery within the Cove as well. My late wife and...

    My late wife and I visited there every time we were in the South near the national park. It is a magical place…

    That special place is any body of water where I may dive deep into the stillness, circle round and round with feet extended to the sky—-literally inverted and find the peace of God in my own original way. I follow what he wants of me and he wants me to dance in water. And so I do.

  • Bijou

    My “place” is with my dog, Cousteau. When I need peace, I simply think of him. In my mind I imagine his little face and how happy he is to see me when I arrive home from a tough day. This always brings a smile to my face and restores the peace within me.

    Ocean Beach, San Francisco. I could walk there from my childhood home. Still, when I visit The City, as I will today, I’ll spend 30-45 minutes at Ocean Beach (near the zoo) enjoying the peaceful calm and ocean air.

  • Jeana

    Beaches of Maui – Redwood Forests of California. Rocky Mountains. Oceans, forests, or mountains. Nature.

  • Sheila

    Honestly, in the small apartment where I live and especially when I am just sitting quietly and listening to a CD by sound healer Steven Halpern. Wishing all a blessed day!🌷

  • Carla

    Oh Yes! There is a niche large enough for me to sit in inside the foothills of Mount St Francis in Colorado Springs, CO. It faces West. There I would view the mountain range that is quite majestic.

  • Michele

    My home, backyard, Clearwater Beach, Bok Tower Gardens, Hills Creek State Park.

  • Kevin

    Yes! Being on, or near the ocean!

  • EJP

    On the open fields and through the forest trails on my morning bike ride, carefree and peaceful in the freshness of a new day. With the crisp air and sunshine filling my soul, this is my “place”.

  • Zoe

    Japanese gardens. Either in my mind, looking at a book on Japanese gardens or visiting Japanese gardens. It is on our bucket list, for my husband and I to visit Japanese gardens throughout the USA and yes, even to travel to Japan, to visit Japanese gardens. There is something so peaceful and zen and lovely in a Japanese garden.
