Inner-peace and Emotional Stability

Many people think inner peace is being in the state of Calm and Relaxation. What If I tell you, it is absolutely not the case.

We, human, have a wide range of emotions: happy, sad, angry, envy, grumpy, content, etc. To be frankly, if you got to “rank” these emotions, I bet most of the people would rank happiness as number one. The phrase “don’t worry be happy” is popular for a reason.

But if you really think closely, all these other emotions were there for also for reasons:

• they were there to give us the opportunities to express ourselves,

• to have richer communications between us,

• to help us gone through different times and situations,

• heck, to entertain us when we are lack of simulations!

  
  

Roughly speaking, how you “deal” with your emotions, is part of who you are. When you begin to put a negative and positive association of these emotions, “I like happy, I don’t like sad”, it means you begin to diverse further and further from inner peace. That, is, when the true un-happiness (unbalanced) happens.

In Chinese Medicine, the five basic elements theory (metal-wood-water-fire-earth) also associate five types of emotions (roughly translation to grief-anger-fear-joy-overthinking), and they work hand in hand in harmony to create a balance in a person.

For example, when you are “worrying”, your body/spirit is trying to be “angrier” will help to restore the natural balance, (so don’t worry be happy is not completely true).  But knowing the concept only “solve” part of the problem, to achieve true inner-peace is to answer the question, How tis his naturally balanced concept related to you?

As an individual, you and others (say, your mum) for sure don’t work the same way, but how your mum thinks and act near you is for sure “influencing” how you are. Further more if you are in a group setting, we all are influencing each other and everyone is a little different when they are by themselves.

Modern sociality highly relies on groups of emotional stable individuals to collaborate with together.  Being emotionally stable is what is appeared on the outside, but the core lies on inner peace.
