So often, silence makes us feel nervous thinking that we need to fill the void. But there’s an immense strength & serenity in silence. In silence, there is a sacred mystery, a path that shows the way not with words but with the heart’s yearning. All the sounds, from a whisper to a symphony arise out of & disappear into silence. Silence exists beneath any sound, a soothing space where we can find our own song. Silence isn’t empty, it’s full of answers. We tend to think of silence as absence of sound, but silence has value & quality.
When we listen to silence, we can perceive the depths of our own intuition. Taking time to experience silence calms the mind, rejuvenates & balances our energy. In silence, we hear many sounds that we often tend to ignore – the voice of our intuition, the calling of our passion & purpose. One way to experience silence is to wake up before rest of the world comes alive. Sitting still to watch the sunrise, simply listening to our spirit. We can hear our heart-beat, our breath without any resistance or external interference.
10 minutes of communing with silence leaves us feeling vibrant, stimulated & naturally connected with our environment. We can experience silence through the day, as well. Even in midst of activity, moments of silence are present. Always there like an ocean – vast, potent, inspiring & comforting. Even short periods of time to nurture ourselfves makes us feel joyous, refreshed & renewed. Silence is therapeutic & restorative. The quieter we are, the more we can hear.
