Now more than ever in a world of ever increasing chaos and change, we need a way of finding peace within ourselves.

What would it be like if you could find that peace in just a minute every hour?

Well now you can do just that.

“Just-a-Minute” (JAM) is a dynamic new campaign to create personal peace, launched by the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University. It introduces regular one-minute periods of silence into people’s lives, whether stressed out city executives, busy mums, high profile public figures - or even prolific bloggers :-).

JAM was launched at Wembley Arena in September 2006, with a lot of fanfare around the world and a global TV audience of millions. The amazing launch event at Wembley was a celebration of movement and stillness, sound and silence and was also broadcast live over the Internet.

Also, the launch event was dedicated to the United Nations International Day of Peace.

To give you an idea of how JAM works, you can listen to any of the JAM one minute meditations.

As you listen, follow these Steps to Stillness as suggested by JAM:-

1. Take a moment to be comfortable in your environment.
2. Keeping your eyes open, gently rest them on a chosen point somewhere in front of you.
3. Withdraw your attention from all sights and sounds.
4. Follow the thoughts suggested on the commentary
5. Acknowledge and appreciate the positive feelings and thoughts which may spring directly from this exercise.
6. Stay in these feelings for a few moments.
7. End your meditation by closing your eyes for a few moments and creating complete silence in your mind.

Chill out
PS - I will be back in just a minute.
