1) calmness 2) peace of mind Explanation: 2 options -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 mins (2016-07-16 10:06:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Calmness is the mental state of peace of mind being free from agitation, excitement, or disturbance.[1] It also refers to being in a state of serenity, tranquillity, or peace.[2] Calmness can most easily occur for the average person during a state of relaxation, but it can also be found during much more alert and aware states. Some people find that focusing the mind on something external, or even internal, such as the breathing, can itself be very calming. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2016-07-16 10:07:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another term usually associated with calmness is "Peace". A mind that is at peace or calm will cause the brain to produce "good" hormones, which in turn give the person a stable emotional state and promote good health in every area of life, including marriage. |
