Quiet Time
It is indeed a radical act of love just to sit down and be quiet for a time by yourself. — Jon Kabat-Zinn
Embracing the power of silence can lead to improved mental health, reduced blood pressure, enhanced self-awareness, and a sense of inner peace.

The main reason i say up late after my wife went to bed is to have quiet time. This is not enough.
@amiablePeace77 Do you feel that you have enough quiet time for yourself?
I find that when I do spend more time on some kind of mindfulness practice then I feel better. It also is less time for me to let my mind wander and get into trouble. lol
@soulsings
Nice that mindfulness helps you to prevent your mind going to places it should not visit!
@amiablePeace77
I do! But then, I am retired with few family responsiblities. I sometime have too much time on my hands so some of what needs doing takes forever.
@Fradiga
I hear you Fradiga, neither too little nor too much time is good! You can always come here when you have too much time on your hands! 😀
@amiablePeace77
Unfortunately, I do! I spend a solid two to three hours on 7cups every day listening
@Fradiga
Fradiga you help a lot of people and I hope it helps you too! Thank you for all the support you give.
@amiablePeace77
It seems I do. The word "help" is an almost-censored action here
@Fradiga
Let's just breathe Fradiga 😀
@amiablePeace77 i honestly do not. and to be fair, i prefer it that way. i like even just having music on
@KateDoskocilova
Just be with music sounds good to me!
@KateDoskocilova
You are tougher than most people here! Good show...
@amiablePeace77. I like spending time with my partner but like some quiet time as well. I get enough quiet time by going in the other room when I need it.
@adventurousBranch3786
Nice that you have the option to withdraw and just be with yourself for a while.
