What can I do?

Peace is not something that is initiated only by peacemakers or world leaders. Peace is the change that you and I can make here and now!

Changing the world does not require us to radically change our life; it requires us to be aware in every moment and see how we can say and do small things in a different way.

1. Light a World Peace Flame candle and relax: sit comfortably for a few moments and focus on your breathing.
2. Take 3 deep breaths.
3. On the next inhalation think: I am peace
4. As you exhale quietly think: I give peace
5. Repeat as often as you want. Relax into the vastness of peace you have created

World Peace Flame healing meditation

1. Sit in a comfortable position.  Relax your body and focus on your breath for a few moments, allowing the natural rhythm of your breathing to bring a deep sense of relaxation to you.
   
   
2. Begin to think of a situation of conflict or unrest and construct a picture of it at heart level in front of you.  The situation could be with someone you love or perhaps of something that is happening in the world.
   
   
3. Once this picture has formed, imagine you are  breathing in a golden light from a space above the crown of your head. Breathe this light down through the crown and into your heart.  As you breathe out send this light from the heat towards the picture in front of you.
   
   
4. Continue this for several breathes.  Breathing in and drawing a golden glow through the crown to the heart, breathing out and sending this light towards the picture in front of you.
   
   
5. As the light touches the people or places involved, see the pain and suffering begin to dissolve and peace gradually take its place.
   
   
6. Watch smiles and relief coming onto the faces of the people in your picture.
   
   
7. When you feel the transformation is complete, allow the image in front of you to fade, take your awareness to the golden glow which has built up around the heart and simply rest in silence.
