The Sound Of Silence

The Sound Of Silence.

With so much noise bombarding us in our everyday lives, silence is underrated.

If like me you have a noisy home-life, have a noisy stressful job, live in a noisy environment, have a noisy chatty brain or suffer from tinnitus, it feels like you never get a break.  

This can take its toll on you mentally, emotionally, energetically and physically. In short you can feel drained. 

On a recent stroll in the woods, I found myself amongst a group of pine trees, I stopped to listen and what I heard was nothing. Perfect nothingness. 

The tranquility there enveloped me, the fresh earthy smell, the spongy texture underfoot, the closeness of the trees, it all made the area feel thick with silence. And so I recorded it… listen closely with headphones, you’ll hear nothing and its beautiful. 

‘Silence is golden’ is the age old saying meaning silence is preferably to speech. 

Shhuusssshhhhh. Be still, be silent, breathe. Listen intently, what do you hear? 

Thank you for reading. May you live wild and free.

Love,
