In a culture that often celebrates hustle and noise, peace can feel rare. Yet, peace is the ultimate prize for so many of us and so we asked folks to reflect on when they feel most at peace.

I feel most at peace when I’m surrounded by the people who matter most to me, those who know my heart, speak life into my life, and offer the kind of support that grounds me. There’s a deep sense of comfort in being with people who truly see you, where laughter, love, and even silence feel sacred. Read More>>

That’s a loaded question for me. I feel the most peace when I live in the present. I feel the most peace when I am empowering others. I feel the most peace when I know I’ve pleased God. I feel the most peace now that I have accepted myself and love everything about how God made me. Read More>>

I feel most at peace in the studio. Even on my bad days, it is a joy to be creating and doing what I love. Being completely in the moment while painting is so meaningful for me. It is a gift to spend all day struggling with a painting and allowing the process to unfold in a completely intuitive and organic way. Read More>>

Being in nature has always been where I feel most peaceful. I’m so grateful to have this little five acres of property out in the country – it gives me a place to go when I’m feeling stressed. I can walk out of my studio door and look at the field and forest, take a deep breath, and feel calm again. Read More>>
