As you grow up, you learn to incorporate more and more healthier habits into your life, and as time passes you start learning what works for you and what don’t. Most habits focus more on productivity but I think it’s essential to build habits which focus on peace & joy as well.
In today’s post, I wanted to share with you 3 habits that I think are extremely important in order to live a peaceful life. Without further ado, let’s jump into the post!
En grandissant, vous apprenez à intégrer de plus en plus d’habitudes plus saines dans votre vie, et au fil du temps, vous commencez à apprendre ce qui fonctionne pour vous et ce qui ne fonctionne pas. La plupart des habitudes se concentrent davantage sur la productivité, mais je pense qu’il est essentiel de créer des habitudes qui se concentrent également sur la paix et la joie.
Dans l’article d’aujourd’hui, je voulais partager avec vous 3 habitudes qui me semblent extrêmement importantes pour vivre une vie paisible. Sans plus attendre, passons à l’article !

CONSUMING ART TO SPARK CREATIVITY
I recently read a quote which said that the opposite of depression isn’t joy but expression and it’s something I couldn’t agree more with. In order to live a peaceful life, you have to create but it doesn’t have to be anything substantial. One of the best ways to create is by consuming art because it helps you find out what you like and dislike but also who you are as a person.
A lot of people assume that art is paintings or drawings but there is art everywhere around us and we consume it on a daily basis whether it be the books we read, the films we watch, the nature we come across outside, even the furniture that is in our homes – there is always some sort of art everywhere. The more we consume it, the more we find what type of person we are.

HAVING A HOBBY PURELY FOR ENJOYMENT
We live in a time where hobbies have turned into side hustles and businesses but I think it’s very important to have a hobby just for yourself, something you do just for your own enjoyment and pleasure. It doesn’t have to be productive nor profitable, it could be something you enjoyed doing as a child or it could be something completely new but having something to do out of pure enjoyment will bring you immense joy.

PRIORITISING YOUR PEACE BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
Last but not least, I think it’s essential that you try to prioritise your peace before anything else in your life. We often put others before our own self which isn’t inherently bad but at the same time, it’s not healthy either.
Some people prioritise happiness before making any decisions or at least that is the key element they focus on but I personally think you should base your choices & decisions on your peace. Will I be at peace if I follow through with this? Will I be able to sleep peacefully after I make this decision? Is it something that will bring me peace?
Happiness is more of a fleeting emotion whereas peace is not, asking yourself these questions will help you figure out if you are surrounded with the right people or what types of decisions you need to make in order to have less problems in your life.

Great ideas.
I love this part —art is everywhere around us. People often confuse creative with being artistic.
Great post.
