Sunsets
Pretty much anything performed by trumpeter Chris Botti, but his version of "Hallelujah" is one of my favorites
Listening to the symphony of spring peepers in the mountains
Having no set time to wake up
The quiet stillness of a house before everyone begins to stir
The ting-ting-ting of rain on a metal roof
Time spent on a river
Starry skies
The soothing sound of my mother's wind chimes
Being in the Appalachian Mountains of southern West Virginia
The ocean
Decluttering
The warm autumn sun on my face
Being still, silent, and present in the present
Rubbing my dog's velvety ears
"These Are the Days" by Van Morrison

you're lucky to be so close to the appalacians! i'd be hiking/running there all the time (assuming there are running trails there?)
ReplyDeleteHaving no alarm in the morning is the definition of peace, yes! Waking up to that rain on a roof, even better :)
ReplyDeleteThe song "Hallelujah" gets me every time, but that trumpet rendition was something else. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for joining the challenge :)
I love this, I've always wanted to visit The Appalachians. And the quietness before everyone starts to stir in the morning is one of my favourite times of day, it's nice to be alone and not really be alone.
ReplyDeleterain on a metal roof is the best. i love the sound of rain. i love anything by van morrison!
ReplyDeleteYes for Van Morrison!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the intro to that version of Hallelujah.
I love a still house as well.
Lots of good things there. I like being in the house on my own, always quiet and peaceful.
ReplyDeleteMany things that are making me nod my head. Any visit I've made to mountain regions (the Rockies and the Alps) have made me feel peaceful. I enjoy windchimes as well.
ReplyDeleteDecluttering is a good one - I never realized how peaceful I've felt after a good purge of clothes, shoes and general crap. And sleeping in with no alarm is the best especially after a long work week.
ReplyDeleteOh I adore having no set wake up time!!!! It is one most my fav things and I go to sleep better when I know I don't have to stress about getting up early for something #mg
ReplyDeleteBeing near any body of water, sunshine on my face, and no alarm clock are all things that make me feel peaceful too! I don't remember the last time I was in the mountains but I can imagine how peaceful it would be :)
