“Freedom from noise and goal-directed tasks, it appears, unites the quiet without and within, allowing our conscious workspace to do its thing, to weave ourselves into the world, to discover where we fit in. That’s the power of silence", writes Daniel Gross.

Science shows that as little as 2 minutes of absolute silence practised regularly have a positive effect on our brain health. 

For the Mindful May Series, we are bringing you practical self-care rituals and habits that you can easily incorporate in your everyday life and most importantly, to bring Quiet Social Clubs’s experiences to you in your home.

- How to cultivate quiet time 

We will also bring you an immersive quiet experience that is based on scientific findings on the power of silence. 

“Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well.”

“When you enter a mindset, you enter a new world. In one world—the world of fixed traits—success is about proving you’re smart or talented. Validating yourself. In the other—the world of changing qualities—it’s about stretching yourself to learn something new. Developing yourself.” - Carol Dweck in Mindset. 

In today’s episode, we will be looking at the different ways of approaching our day when we adopt a growth or a fixed mindset. Take pen and paper and create five columns: 

1. Difficult situation
2. Thoughts in response to the situation
3. Is this a fixed or a growth mindset?
4. How could I rephrase this into a growth mindset?
5. What would be the next action in a growth mindset?

"Feeling connected in this way allows us to remind ourselves that at every moment we have everything we need already within us. And even if it sometimes feels like this isn’t true, by slowing down you will discover and reconnect with it. Sometimes, the reason why we don’t feel connected to our life is because things have gotten a little out of balance. In these times, it helps to just slow down, seek quiet time and in this way gain perspective and an intuitive understanding for what we need to move forward. " Join us for this week's meditation and mantra.

By letting go of the past and our expectations for the future, awe are in this moment. When we practice mindfulness, and we centre ourselves in this present moment, we let go."
