Symptoms of inner peace:

A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experiences ...

An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment

A loss of interest in judging other people

A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of other

A loss of interest in conflict

A loss of the ability to worry

Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation

Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature

An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than make them happen.
