How to Find Inner Peace Through Detachment

Life has been a whirlwind lately but I'm grateful for the major changes happening within and around me. Today I'm sharing how to find peace in challenging times through 3 types of detachment. I realized that as I grow, I'm able to handle stressful situations with more calm and presence. A mental skill that has helped me so much is learning to detach and not get caught up in my anxiety & emotions. I hope learning this can help you protect your mental health & face your challenges with more grace.

Have you been able to detach from your thoughts and emotions? Where do you find yourself placing your self worth? Comment below with your thoughts on where you are in your journey 😌

"your true worth is not in what you have, but in what you are" 💕 I needed this

"Thank you for existing" I literally cry.

1. Detach ur sense of self worth from everything
2. detach from any expected outcomes(live in the moment)
3. Detach from ur thoughts and emotions

A year ago I was an addict. Around 2014 I was hospitalized due to mental illness and gave in to my diagnosis for almost 8 years. I hated who is was and how I compared who I should be to what I perceived the world wanted. I destroyed my body with drugs and alcohol and smoking. I destroyed my mind with anger. I hated myself and often everyone else. I felt alone and rejected.

Now I am clean for over half a year, 30 lbs lighter, no longer smoke, getting somewhat into shape and even have a gf of several months.

But I’m still rarely happy and am angry a lot. I’m having to deal with emotions after years of ignoring them. I want peace. I want to finally love myself and love the world and be more genuinely connected with other people, like I was years ago. I’m sick of being angry and afraid. I want to belong and feel the incredible beauty of the moment.

Sending out love and energy to you who made this video as well as to anyone reading. We are all human and that is precious and meaningful enough.

You found in your failures an opportunity to redefine what makes you feel worthy. I love that.

Wow literally seconds in and I’m finding peace already ❤️

[JournalingWithNadia]

I've been practicing detachment and I started with my looks and social media. I used to think how I look and how much likes I got defined my worth, but now I've learnt to accept myself for who I am and just be grateful for the body I have and having the opportunity to be creative on social media

as a student, i found a lot more peace from being a perfectionist to detaching my self-worth to grades

[jaimetan]

I’ve found “letting go of the outcome” a more helpful phrase than the word “detach”... as detach to me feels emotionless and robotic, almost like you’re not putting in effort. Whereas I like the approach of putting your heart and soul into the work, but still “letting go of the outcome”. Semantics, really... but just a slight shift in language or use of words has helped me truly understand how to “detach” in a way that makes sense to me. If this helps anyone else who struggles with the word “detach” too... ❤️

"For I know the plans I have for you, ” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
We should not be afraid of the future coz God has our backs! He loves us and will take care of us. He has set a plan and if we surrender to Him, what on earth can bring us down?
Always strive: "less of me, more of God"

Few things beat a deep meditation when the mind needs rest - after all, we feed it "garbage information" all day.

[Uhhhhnope]

Although I never understood what people meant by "I'm not my body, neither my brain. I'm just a soul.", I never really cared into looking further to understand it.

Now, trying to find inner peace in myself, I stumbled with your video. The explanation you gave on us being just the soul, and the soul being a quiet observer (5:14) makes so much sense it's such a eye opener on how to live life. It's incredible how it took just a few seconds of you explaining spirituality for me to change my perspective about myself and everything.

I am my body, but my body isn't me. It's like we're just a player with an avatar trying to complete the main story of the game. We are the main character, but this character isn't us. We're just the player, the observer of the main character's story.

I found this really helpful as I am going through a period of stress and sadness and feel overwhelmed quite often.
