Quiet, Please!
by Terri King on Jul.21, 2008, under Uncategorized
Life is noisy. The phone’s ringing, the baby’s crying, the TV’s blaring, the dog’s barking. You name it, right?
Often, I think, we go day after day without a moment of meaningful silence.
Okay, you say, what’s the big deal?
Well, it’s only in quiet time that we are able to visit with ourselves intimately.
It’s a time for healing, a time for calming, and a time for searching.
Time well spent.
3 Things to do to create quiet:
1. Turn off the TV/Radio ( This mas feel uncomfortable at first, stay with it.)
2. Pick a place you like to relax in.
3. Set a definite time period aside for quietness. (Try 5 minutes to start.)
I’m gonna hush now so you can be quiet.

I’m not a happy camper when I go too long without my “quiet” time each day…..that would be “mat” time for me!
Lovely that you pass on to others such a simple action/discipline to create “space” in our lives.
I encourage everyone to try it!
What do you have to loose? Maybe 5 minutes from your day…
……but stay with it each day to see all that you will gain!
