Enjoy the Silence

I’m taking a yoga class on Monday nights.  I need it for the physiological and the psychological benefits.  My favorite part of Yoga is at the end when the room is quiet and we do a complete body relaxation exercise.  We tell each part of our body to relax and let go. 

I've spent a large part of my life in church work.  Church people sometimes have trouble with silence.  Seems we want to fill the void with sound, noise and movement. 

I like the silent times in my life.  I want to think my own thoughts, pay attention to my body and how it feels and how it is responding.  And even pray or meditate.

Silence is good – very good!
