What are the benefits of practicing silence? Did you know that we speak about 16,000 words per day? Of course, these numbers vary depending on your job, how many people you live with, and how many people you interact with every day. But still, the enormous amount of information going through our brains at any given moment! So sometimes we just need some peace, and that’s where practicing silence comes in.  It can be a frightening experience at first. People think that being bound to silence for a while means losing the ability to communicate. In reality, being silent for a few days can give you a feeling of liberation you might never have experienced before. It can also lead to a stronger connection to yourself and offer you a genuine sense of peace.
