Start Your Day in Silence

Give yourself at least 10 minutes upon waking to do some meditation, reading, or stretching. Avoid turning on the news, and radio. It is known that our hormone levels are at their highest when we first awake.

Drive in Silence

Get in touch with your own thoughts, and be with yourself. Learn to recognize your feelings, and live in the moment. Silence can rejuvenate you.

Eat in Silence

Eating in silence helps you to enjoy the food more and prevent you from overeating. Eat without television or reading can help you tune into your body’s signals of satisfaction. Above all, it allows you to metabolize food more efficiently.

If dinner time is when your family exchanging information of what were going on with your life, then by all mean, do not stop that important time to communicate. You can set out another time for quietness.

    These ideas are great, Icy. These tips do seem like a quiet way to enjoy having some peace and quiet. I usually listen to my radio in the morning so I will try turning it off to relax. :)
