When I redid my Vows this year, I added four Daily Acts.
An Act of Silence
An Act of Study
An Act of Creativity
An Act of Care
The hardest one so far has been that Act of Silence.
Because background noise is SUCH a habit that I will have the TV on playing a comfort show and my headphones connected to my computer playing music at the same time within minutes of getting up and going for the day.
So I've started setting a timer first thing in the morning.
One hour.
No TV, no music, not even video games until after that timer goes off.
Because part of the purpose of that Act of Silence is to rewire my brain so that I don't *need* the background noise as much.
It's hard, though, cuz you don't realize just how noisy the world actually is.
