Silence and Solitude
By Randy Salars·
Silence and solitude are disciplines for quieting the mind, withdrawing from noise and distraction, and listening deeply to the inner voice or the divine. These practices are found in Christian silence, Buddhist meditation retreats, hermitage, and more.
Silence: Setting aside time for quiet reflection and prayer.
Solitude: Being alone with oneself and with the sacred, apart from daily demands.
Listening: Attending to the subtle movements of the heart and spirit.
Silence and solitude foster clarity, renewal, and a deeper sense of connection to the sacred source of life.
