The practice of silence is more than refraining from speech. It involves the witnessing of thoughts that constantly rise up with the command “to DO” something. In silence there is nothing to DO.
The phrase, “Silence is Golden” is a great descriptor of the benefit of this practice.
As one of our focus points has been to speak the truth of ourselves this month, it is a nice practice to refrain from speech and practice silence!
