Noise




The first time I understood what noise is was in Canada. I was on this lake in a kayak in 2004. It was the first time in my life I felt the silence of nature, the silence of being. As I was the person who was making all the noise. I felt very small and enjoyed listening to the silence for a while sitting completey still.
That is why I take people walking for coaching. So we can have silent moments, to understand the noise is in our head. When you realise you are the noise, you can also find an answer to it. Our world is full of noise and how do you find out what is yours and what is from others? To get away from it and face it!!
To finish with a Spanish saying: IF YOU CAN'T IMPROVE THE SILENCE, YOU BETTER BE QUIET!
