You may feel compulsive and emotional today, which could lead you to act hastily. You may find yourself feeling tempted to make impulse buys, overreacting to innocent comments made by others, or feeling unbalanced in your relationships. You may find it helpful to spend some quiet time alone so you can gain control of your emotions, and engage in a calming meditation to help you release tension and encourage serenity. Simply close your eyes, breathe slowly and deeply, and release all worries from your mind. You can repeat a calming mantra on each exhale, such as "peace," or just focus on your breath and let it calm you. Then turn your attention to your spiritual center, and allow a sense of serenity to soothe and center you today.

By consciously creating a serene state of mind, our emotions become calm, and we feel centered and balanced again. Since our emotions are easily influenced by our circumstances, they can often become unmanageable unless we work on achieving a more balanced state of mind. As we consciously release our turbulent feelings and turn our attention inward to our spiritual center, we automatically begin to feel calmer and more centered. Our emotions are soothed, we feel more in control of our actions, and we can return to our normal activities feeling balanced and happy. You can calm your emotions and achieve a more balanced state of mind today by choosing to let go of tension and focus on embracing a feeling of serenity.
