First, I would like to say with all sincerity that Jesus brings me peace. His peace surpasses all understanding. He is my peace in the midst of the storms. His peace cannot equate to any other peace.

There are things though that also help me to cherish and maintain my peace, rest, and even my solitude, memories and moments.

Having a day off doing things I love: watching movies, mysteries, or old shows or even listening to music on my headphones helps me to rest and cherish my peace.

Also having a day off to catch up on goals, tasks, projects, and more helps me to rest well.

Taking a walk especially through a flowering, grassy field or on a beautiful walking trail adds to my peace. It feels so serene.

Spending time reflecting and journaling helps me to maintain my peace. Encouraging others and spending quality time with my family adds to my joy and peace.
