Enjoy the power of Silence

Restore and rejuvenate yourself through the power of quiet in these soft and simple ways.

Practice eating a meal quietly, even if your family joins you- invite them to share silence.

Walk through nature without talking, listen.  Let yourself wander through an open field or stare at an uninterrupted view of the sky.

Turn off your alarm clock, cell phone, TV, and I Pod for 24 hours- adjust to a natural rythym rather than constantly looking at the clock.

Try to do your ordinary chores without chatting: dishes, laundry, gardening.

Begin to notice what exists underneath the surface.  As we invite ourselves into silence, reflection and insight occur.  Silence facilitates deep connection with the true self, nature, and others.  In quiet, our attention is heightened, focus is clear.

Enjoy!
