Silence.

Count to seven. Listen only to your breathing. How do you feel?

I’ve been musing on silence as a practice this week. It hasn’t been the easiest week to practice silence because my own voices of inner-chaos are pretty loud. This happens from time to time, especially in stressful seasons. And yet, when I’ve pushed into silence this week, I’ve found myself cooler, calmer, more collected.

The practice of silence works to bring us a sort of waking rest if only we’ll let it.

So why have I written about silence every day this week? I’ve turned over a new writing leaf, I suppose. I’m dedicating this space to exploring and writing about spiritual practices, practices of waking up. So over the next few months (perhaps years), I’ll pick a weekly topic like Silence and fumble around the edges of it. I’ll play with it, consider it, practice it, and I’ll ask you to consider doing the same. Make sure to follow along by subscribing, by checking your morning (or sometimes noon-hour) messages?

If you’ve enjoyed this series, if it’s made you think, feel free to email me.

I may not see you tomorrow, but I’ll see you around,

Seth
