5 Steps to Daily Quiet Time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get fresh downloads of wisdom everyday this year with a new daily practice of quiet time. This is: less is more. Surprisingly as vital as brushing your teeth each morning, once you find it, you may keep returning. Life can transform wonderfully with what there is in the silence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ring fence with all your might 10 - 20 mins or more, ideally in the morning at home before the day starts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get into the mindset of developing a new routine practice, dig deep for self discipline to be as still and quiet as you can.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Find a favourite place to make your quiet-time-place to return to everyday.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allow no phones, no noise, music, other people, pets, disturbance or distractions at all, be strict to get the full benefits, let everyone know not to disturb you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then enjoy just you in the quiet, connect to your thankfulness, perhaps take a pen and paper to write what you hear, ideas or insights that come to you, and totally enjoy the wonder in the quietness.
