Silence: A Place of Growth

What Happens in the ...

Silence.

Silence is the absence of noise reaching our eardrums.

It is the peaceful feeling staring into the infinite sky at its darkest moment.

It is the mesmerizing tango played by water and sand as it crashes on its shores.

It is the slow steps in the wilderness.

It is the still moments gazing into the vastness of nature.

It is the blank mind staring into the dancing flames of a fire.

It is the contemplative mind watching perfectly shaped snowflakes floating with gravity.

It is the quiet moment in solitude.

It is the moment where truth rises.

It is the time spent sitting inside the pain.

It is the moment where hidden feelings erupt to the surface.

It is the moment where we clear our thoughts.

It is the moment where we create space.

It is the moment where foundations are strengthened.

It is the moment where we move forward with the Energy of Life.

In the stillness of solitude, in the silence of the mind, in the darkest thoughts, in the shameful feelings, in the good memories, the happy thoughts, the laughs; in all those moments, we listen, we let the chatter flow, we contemplate it, we understand it, we become conscious of it, we let it go, we grow. We become liberated.

Silence …

We all need more silence in this world. Mother Theresa use to say, “God loves silence”. Silence is where we regroup and can truly hear God talking to us. There is a belief in Celtic Wisdom that says one whole day without talking can add a week on to your life”.
Silence is golden.

Curiosity

Curiosity is our natural ability to look at things with fresh eyes. As we put aside opinions, concepts, projections, and expectations: we become available to experience this moment with the wonder and innocence of a child. 

Being curious brings us into a natural, open, and vast space to explore: “What is this?” “What am I experiencing?” “What am I feeling?”

4. Bring more awareness to what you are feeling. Focus on your felt experience and the qualities of the Inner Resource as you embody it. Resist the habit to analyze. Simply feel your body and emotions. 

5. Be open to your current experience, whatever it is, without judgment. Just ride the wave of the experience.

6. Remember that the quality of your attention and what you are feeling are more important than the content. Notice how your attention changes, waxing and waning, growing stronger, and sometimes getting distracted. No worries, simply bring your awareness back to the moment, take a deep breath, and focus on the Inner Resource.

7. Become familiar with the feelings and sensations of the Inner Resource you have chosen. Feel what is showing up in your physical body and your emotional body. Be curious to discover how this Inner Resource will support you in your life, to be who you really want to be, and feel how you really want to feel. It is through feeling the Inner Resource that you activate the frequency of it. 

Take 5 Deep Breaths

1. Feel your body.

2. Relax your shoulders.

3. Choose a word that makes you feel peaceful, such as om, peace, or love.

4. Inhale slowly while mentally saying the word you chose. Pause before starting the exhalation.

5. Exhale slowly while mentally saying 1 with the first breath. Exhale saying 2 with the second breath, up to 5 or more.

Feel Your Body

Relax your body, and just be aware of how your body feels. Be curious about what is happening in your body. Without changing anything, just notice what you are feeling. Notice where you are feeling things in your body. Make yourself more comfortable if you’d like. Take a deep breath, and feel the sensation of aliveness and the energy of your body.
