Playing at sunset I glanced over my shoulder and noticed movement. Squinting I spied a doe as she picked her way noiselessly through the undergrowth. Outdoors, I move, breathe and play in concert with the rustling of the leaves. I harmonise with the birds and in this case a vey loud cricket. Am I playing to, for, or with nature? My energy field expands sending waves of peaceful healing in all directions. I Am One.
Say "Yes" to Quiet
International Noise Awareness Day was founded in 1996 by the Center for Hearing and Communication to raise awareness and educate the public about the harmful effects of noise on hearing, health and quality of life.
Noise is unwanted sound. Since the 1930's attention has been drawn to the effect of ambient sound.on our wellbeing. In the workplace unwanted noise reduces productivity, damages hearing, stresses the nervous system and impairs sleep. While children exposed to loud noises will suffer developmentally.
Quiet refers to calm and tranquility. Often in our busy lives we yearn for peace and quiet, linking one to the other. This week I invite you to 'say no to noise and yes to quiet'. Sit comfortably, close your eyes and breathe long and deep for one minute allowing your mind to become still and simply be.
