Cultivating a Sense of Calm & Peace

By Andrea Kartika Deierlein

· Selfcare,Mindfulness,Reiki

Stress is contagious. That’s the headline of an article that showed up on my newsfeed – and it’s true. In a world full of change and uncertainty, everything can feel more amplified and intense. For some more than others.

Have you noticed that one of the quickest ways to lose your calm is when you react to what another person says or does (or doesn’t say or do)? Or when you read a headline or turn on the news?

It happens so quickly, almost automatically… the urge and internal pressure to say or do something, anything, right here, right now.

That’s the flight-or-fight response kicking in. It’s the body’s automatic stress reaction to perceived danger and threat. It’s what causes muscles to tense up and adrenaline and cortisol levels to surge. But you don’t have to stay in this activated mode all the time.

You can cultivate a sense of calm & peace.

You can pause.
You can breathe.
You can come back to your center.

Mindfulness and Reiki teach this again and again:
Peace isn’t found outside of us.
It’s cultivated inside—moment by moment, breath by breath.

Each time you choose to rest, relax, or realign,
you’re saying yes to yourself.
You’re reminding your nervous system and your body:
In this moment, right now, you’re safe. You’re supported. You don’t have to fight.

When life feels heavy and you’re in need of a reset, here’s my 6-minute guided Reiki Shower meditation.

May you experience moments of CALM, PEACE & PRESENCE today and every day.
