"Simply find a quiet, comfortable place to sit or lay and place your hands over your heart. Breathe into your heart a few times and then just sit quietly with it, staying connected and tuned in."
~ Coach Linda Luke, LifeCoachLinda.com

Hygge Heart-Opening Peace Practice


A Hygge Moment that Will Calm You Quickly


Not only can deepen the peace by adding lots of hygge to this simple exercise, you can do it anytime and anywhere.

While sitting at a stop light. Right after your homeschooling day comes to a close.

Before connecting with someone in your life who is difficult. Before doing a dreaded task. After an uncomfortable conversation.

Or anytime you need a quick way to calm down and connect to peace, or strengthen your heart energy. Can you think of other moments in your life when a quick peace practice might come in handy?

Here's a way to do it with some hygge added...

Go to your favorite comfy spot, hopefully near a window with a grounding view of the trees. And settle in with tea nearby and a candle lit.

Then, simply place your hands on your heart and breathe, deeply and slowly, until you are fully relaxed and at peace.


Take a moment to try this exercise now,
before you finish reading this post.


With a simple hygge spiritual practice like this one, you can create moments of peace anytime you want.

See you next time!

Love, Jeanine

I had actually just done the hands-over-heart part of this when I sat down. Today has been great and I feel so blessed.

Oh. neat! I'm glad you have that as a resource, too. It is so soothing & heart-opening and it really brings the peace.

WOW, there are days I would be sitting at the window with my hand over my heart and breathing. But then there are other days I rejoice and thank the Lord for a wonderful day.

And maybe one happens first and the other happens next? Putting your hand on your heart can change things. :)
