We live in a noisy, often chaotic world. Experiencing silence can be daunting. We are finally still enough to hear what's going on in our head - and that can be either good or bad. We've all experienced the awkward silence of a difficult conversation, or have had intrusive thoughts that invade when we're still. It doesn't have to be this way. Silence can be a powerful opportunity to check in with ourself and learn how to manage our thoughts.
