Have you ever had one of those moments where you are completely in

sensory overload? The tv is blaring, dog is barking, kids are nagging and then the

phone rings. You lose it! 

That's it, I'm moving to Mars! Or Sparta.....hmmmm ancient Greece sounds great now!

The power of silence is more profound than you think.

1. When listening to someone intently, letting them speak their mind and

really HEARING what they are saying - in silence.

2. When having an argument, think about what your words will really mean

and the impact it will have on your future - in silence.

3. Have you ever though, in any given situation; that you are going to lose your

cool completely and it would in other circumstances be out of character? 

Take a deep breath, re-assess the scenario - in silence.

4. Emotions and feelings spill over in the most inappropriate ways and times

that you can handle differently if you just take a time-out and think - in silence.

The emotional release you can get from something as simple as a long drive,

in complete silence is profound. Try it!
