Why silent pauses are so important.
Have you ever considered how important a silent pause is in a conversation?
The Silent Pause -
the silence between one thought, one word, one idea and the next.
The Silent Pause allows you to have your space held so much that the person to whom you are having a conversation with, and this can be yourself too, feels comfortable to allow silence to occur. The silences that invite you to go on, to share some more, to breathe out, to contemplate, to go deeper and deeper without feeling that in that pause, that silent space, something else has to be filled.
Have you ever considered the Silent Pause and its effect upon one word, one thought, one action and how that affects the interaction
between yourself to yourself
and yourself to another?
Have you ever considered the Silent Pauses in life, in your thought processes, in your conversations with others or yourself?
The subtle silence that when offered encourages you to breathe out, to pause while you gather your thoughts, to know that you are free to talk or ponder or reflect without feeling you have to be hurried or that someone will give you unsolicited advise (even if this advise is helpful), or that your words are being bombarded by others.
And have you ever considered how you interact with others?
Do you invite or initiate the pauses when you talk to others,
or do you rush in and share your view point, give advise, try to rescue or fix things, when maybe a Silent Pause might be more appropriate?
And then you might know others who in their mindfulness offers you the pause to sort your words out,
to give you the space to breathe before you share again,
who give you the Silent Pause in respect of what you have just shared before they share one or two or three sentences or even words, and no more, allowing and inviting more silence, more stillness and more pauses in the conversation.
And then I wonder have you ever personally been in a phase of your own Inner Silent Pause where you gift yourself the silence to go on released of the need to come out too quickly.
Why are silent pauses so important?
They say to our hearts that we are listening
They say to our truth that we hear
They say to our body that we are stopping
They say to our emotions that we are holding
They say to our mind that we can stop
They say to our energy that we can re balance
They say to our friends that we will be there
They say to our friends that we will honour them
They say to our friends that we are patient
They say to our friends that we are present
They say to our friends that we respect their journey
They say to our friends that we are released of ego
They say, the silent pauses, more than words,
for the silent pauses invites the deeper voices, the deeper feelings, the deeper healing and that in its simplicity is profound.
I invite you to hold space for what your heart wishes to say and yet has no words at this moment. And in the Silent Pause of just being may you invite more wisdom and blessings to come forth.
There is profound wisdom in the Silent Pause.
A gift that only when experienced can one truly understand.
Sometimes we are unable to hold the silent pauses in our own lives because we are too busy, too frantic, too ungrounded, to attached to the outcome,
if I can hold that silent pause for you via a healing or
soul retrieval,
via a meditation
or a short course,
I would be honoured too.
Until we meet where the silent pauses gift our hearts and hold our truths,
Blessed Be.
