Stress Tip of the Week - Enjoy Pure Silence

"When we experience pure silence in the mind, the body becomes silent also. And in that field of silence, healing is much more efficient". Deepak Chopra

A few months back I was washing dishes when Peter came into the kitchen from his workshop and put down the ear defenders he had been using. For fun, I put them on and an amazing thing happened.

All at once I felt totally calm as though a wave of relaxation had washed over me. I could hear nothing and very quickly even the chattering thoughts in my head subsided and everything was very still and quiet.

It was such a peaceful experience that I kept the ear defenders on for quite some time just to enjoy and stretch out the moment. I often give myself a moment of pure silence when I think of nothing, speak of nothing and listen to nothing. How often does that occur in our busy lives?

It always gives me a feeling of peace and it feels comfortable and nurturing.
I urge you to experience it for yourself, you may be very pleasently surprised.

Have a great week
Love & best wishes

What a wonderful idea. I've been thinking of getting some earplugs for sleeping, but they'd be even better to use when writing...
