Living an Inspired Life || Silence

We, at BuDhaGirl, are in the process of creating a list which will highlight different tips and ideas you can practice daily in order to live a more inspired and beautiful life.  You will be able to read the entire list within the next few weeks (we will have a direct link from our blog). Once a month, we will discuss one of our tips here. In the meantime, we wanted to present to you our first reflection. It's such a simple truth and something we quietly crave more and more of-

1 || Silence....be still, do not talk, do not feel the need to instantly respond.

Televisions are everywhere we go, earphones have become another dress accessory, and over-stimulation in general have made us forget what silence even sounds like. There is nothing more inspiring than being able to hear yourself think for a change.  Magnificent ideas will not come from noise and neither will inner peace and tranquility.  Silence encourages reflection and contemplation.  We can only be better human beings by being more mindful of creating more moments of silence.

What do you find is the best way to integrate silence in your daily routine?

Go, be it.
