Quiet Times

Wouldn’t it be handy if we could have a volume control for life?

In our 24-7, always-on world, it can get noisy. 

Notifications and messages popping up on our screens.

Phones ringing, dinging and pinging.

Fast-scrolling social media feeds.

Full calendars, full inboxes, full to-do lists each vying for our attention.

Sssshhhhhhh ….

There’s evidence that silence helps to relieve stress, improve concentration and focus, and boosts brain cell growth.

All the more reason to switch the volume down whenever we can, don’t you agree?
