Mary Jones: March Advice

My March Challenge....The Power of Silence!!

We live in a world bombarded with noise. So much so, that many people are uncomfortable with silence.

Let's practice being aware that there's a momentary silence in the space between our thoughts. In this silent space, we find the peace that so many crave.

The average person has 60,000 separate thoughts a day. With so many thoughts, there are almost no gaps. No gaps= no peace.

Silence reduces fatigue and allows you to experience your own creativity.

Allow silence into your life. For example, don't play the radio all the time you're in the car. Use that time to enjoy the quiet, remove tension and anxiety. And, don't feel compelled to fill in every pause in a conversation with chatter....experience silence.
