Mind’s Peaceful Rhythm

The crazy mind has settled
Into a peaceful rhythm
Notes played, smooth melodies
As they swirl around calmly
Silver chords dancing about

A sense of amity clings
Within its cranial space
At ease from this life’s restraints
A sigh is echoing about
As contentment lounges around

The chaos has quieted down
It slumbers in deep recesses
Where all the dreadful monsters sleep
A corner that’s out of reach
Far away from the lucid brain

A relief of the grandest kind
The body relaxes with time
Listening to warming tones
While tension slowly melts away
Floating wayward on the air

It sure gives a wonderful feeling when your mind settles into the rhythm of peace and balance. Such a state brings great relief and lets you focus and think clearly, away from the 'dreadful monsters' who are in slumber. This rhythm is certainly not for them, it is for you in your space of harmony to be made the most out of. Pleasure to read your poem. Best wishes.

I’m glad you enjoyed this poem. Indeed it is a blessing when the mind calms and becomes balanced and at ease

I feel this as I age...more of a peaceful rhythm---maybe because the beat is slower.

I think that is exactly the problem you speak of…
Especially in the USA life is chaotic and always busy. The cost of living makes it damn near impossible not to be constantly working. And with all the fast pace of life it creates anxiety because of lack of balance

Don't you just love those moments when your mind chills the he'll out and leaves you in the warm and fuzzy calm of serenity?
What is better of knowing that feeling is neatly stored and filed away for future memories of the day you found peace.
It can be many things that bring it to a mind too often confused by the background noise of constant questions and fears, but it is best just to enjoy the moment.
I get that happy calm after clearing bills and knowing that even for the briefest of moments, you have balance in your life, at least until the next bill comes along.
But it doesn't have to be that, it can be listening to the breeze ripple through branches or hearing childish giggles unexpectedly, or even better, giggling childishly for no other reason than it is fun to do.
No matter what brings the calm, it is always appreciated snd remembered.
A bit like when as a child you heard the words "and they all lived happily ever after, if you weren't already in dteamysleepland that is!

So me it is yoga. I’m too focused on the poses and the breathing to think about anything other than the moment. Also meditation helps which for me is quite the task sometimes because I have anxiety and getting it to slow down can be tough. Praying to God helps a lot. It do it multiple times a day. Also oddly enough heavy metal music helps me calm the f**k down. I get lost in the loud beat and crazy guitar riffs and even head bang when no one is around. It also helps
Me get out aggression positively but I also like bluesy music.

It is absolutely beautiful when my settles and takes life one moment at a time.

So for me it is yoga, prayer to God, and meditation plus oddly enough heavy metal music actually keeps my mind from getting chaotic. I can’t focus on overthinking when listening to the loud music

So I get lost in the guitar riffs and loud beats of the heavy metal. I also enjoy bluesy music and a wide array of other genres

You are blessed, mindful chaos, noise, a cacophony of thoughts, are demons that disquiet a peacful nights rest.

[Poetic Beauty]

I enjoy those moment when my brain quiets and rests. I have anxiety so many times it’s going 150 miles an hour thinking and overthinking

[Dave W.]

This conversation inspired the poem I wrote "Wrestling with rest" it's weird how muse strikes

[Beren]

This is literally the Poetic Beauty! I loved it! So warm and fluent. I also kinda felt tingled. And you have wonderful titles of your poems... makes me curious! These are great!

[Poetic Beauty]

I’m glad you liked this poem. The titles for my poems typically come from a line or words within my poems and describe what they are about. Thank you for reading!!

It sure is relaxing when the mind can quiet down. I enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.

[Poetic Beauty]

I have anxiety so it is always welcomed when my mind can settle and become relaxed

[K. Louis]

I saw a video recently about not identifying with the anxiety by saying "I have anxiety"..instead saying "I feel anxious about.." it acknowledges the anxiety without defining yourself by it.
