By practising dedicated periods of quietness or silence as a lifestyle with awareness we:
Learn a new way of relating to the mind and the thought processes
Gain understanding of the habitual patterns of mind
Gain understanding of how to recognise the hidden mental and emotional tensions
Cultivate the power of discrimination to access the quieter mind
How to sustain the inherent quieter mind
- Natural environments allow space for self-reflection to view and review the patterns of the mind, body actions and reactions
- Listening to your inner self wisdom telling us to slow down
- Acknowledging time is needed for self-connection, self-reflective awareness no matter how busy we think we are
- Cultivating a regular practice of yoga or other practices that bring self-awareness, reduction of the senses/externalisation and balance in work and personal lifestyle
- Dedicated periods of quietness or silence as a lifestyle
