Continuing our series on awakening the five senses - let’s talk about sound!
Our capacity to hear relates to the element of Ether, which is the space around us.
To nurture your hearing sense, make space to hear and be heard. Use truthful communication, self-expression and creativity to balance out the chatter.
Instead of laborious small talk, make a conscious effort to ask how someone else is doing. Inquire about their life, family and wellbeing, and LISTEN deeply to what they are sharing. Express your gratitude for your friendship and the invitation to be together. Allow your questions and your caring to create connection.
And when you are talked-out, listen to kirtan chanting or connect and attune to a singing bowl!
Another self-care tip for the sound sense is easy as can be: silence. It’s free and readily available. and very valuable for wellbeing!
