    Receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
    Pray the Lectio Divina (Benedictine style).
    Smell incense wafting from a thurible.
    Adore and receive the Holy Sacrament.

    meditating on nature. Nature makes me feel very zen.

    smoking a doobie doesn't hurt anything either.

    I usually find it on nice summer days in my swing when the neighbors kids aren't home :)


    I like to lay down in it and use my foot on the post to rock it

    Does that lead to serenity? I'd say that is just momentary pleasantness.

    Say the serenity prayer? Meditate on the serenity prayer? Meditate. Imagine a calm, peaceful place and keep going back to it in your mind.

    Right on!,Meditation! The Serenity Prayer is also cool. I always meditate using my breathing mantra. Meditation is so awesome. I discovered it with some hippys on tour back in the early 90's and have kept doing it since. Helps with sleep, headaches, anxiety attacks, the dentist. Yep, meditation definitely gives ((((((Serenity))))))

    "There is just no percentage in remembering the past
    It's time you learned to live again and love and laugh

    Come with me leave your yesterday, your yesterday behind
    And take a giant step outside your mind
    "

    not alone by anything you are going to find in christianity, nor any other belief, nor lack of it, but by creating a world in which no one has to live in fear and anxiety.
