Why a Quiet Mind is Your Natural State
Tracey Gazel
🧠 I help leaders improve mental clarity and focus, sleep better, feel calmer with less stress, be present at home and enjoy life more.
Quieting your mind is the space of no thought.
It is when you feel calm and clear.
It is when life feels easy and you can clearly see your next action step.
And it is when you are living fully in the moment and being present.
It is a natural space to be for children.
Children do not yet plan for the future, worry about the past, or ruminate over what others think.
They feel their emotions fully. And when they are done expressing how they are feeling, they let it go and move on.
Over time as teenagers, young adults, and adults, we collect data from the world and create a set of beliefs, concepts, and thinking processes for our life.
And as we accumulate more people and circumstances depending on us, we accumulate more and more thinking about ourselves and our life.
Suddenly mental clarity and feeling calm and clear feels difficult.
Here’s the good news:
Your calm, quiet, and clear self never left.

It simply got covered up by layers of thinking over time.
There are different ways to access it again.
By being creative, going out in nature, being active, accessing Flow State, and practicing being present.
And of course, through meditation.
Once you start to get glimpses of that space for yourself again, it all feels very familiar.
Remember, your calm, quiet, and clear child-like self isn’t lost. It never left.
And when you practice connecting to it again, you return to being present and having a deeper enjoyment of life.
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! 🦃

P.S. I have been having fun posting a few videos in my Facebook Group. This past week I posted a video that goes deeper into the meditation side of the work that I do and helping others connect to their True Self.
