Life has been so chaotic lately. Summertime is always overly busy, and then, in a flash, it’s almost September. Another season begins. I woke up yesterday and forgot my headphones for the gym. I normally love grooving to the tunes while pumping iron but I enjoyed every minute of having no headphones. I was able to walk outside and hear nothing but the breeze rustling the trees and birds waking up the neighborhood. No static just some nice silence from the noise.

Silence is so hard to find these days. People are grinding 24 hrs a day and never stop to sit in silence. I’ve been guilty of it so much lately, just clocking in and clocking out, or non stop social media consumption. Just like chugging 20 red bulls a day isn’t healthy for the heart, neither is non stop working and consumption of social media.

Next time you are heading on a walk or going to the gym take out the headphones and fight the urge of endlessly scrolling your social media pages. A better idea! Find a park bench and just sit and chill for 15 minutes. See how you feel afterward.


Cheers,

P.S. Silence is golden.
