Silent Bliss is a space to explore silence. It is an invitation to pause to listen to your heart and to tune in to what you most need.
Why silence? there is great liberation when we come to realise that we have the power to shift our inner emotional landscape. Through the practice of silence we slowly become aware of our thinking rather than being fully "attached" or "identified" with it. We begin to witness the stories we tell ourselves which have often kept us stuck in an unhelpful loop. With this powerful new awareness comes space to invite in the qualities that will help us grow and flourish self-acceptance patience compassion and curiosity.
