Silence is Golden by Janet Luhrs
Natural Awakenings Magazine, Rockland & Orange Counties, NY Here's the big idea: Noise is bad for you. During my career as a
pioneer in the simplicity movement, I have taken note of numerous
studies that link unwanted sound to increased levels of stress. Even
low-level noise has been associated with increased aggression and other
mental health problems, as well as poor sleep, high blood pressure and
heart disease. A few of the reporting organizations include Cornell
University, the Acoustical Society of America and the World Health
Organization.
The following tips for increasing moments of silence in daily life will help us all feel better and live healthier: - Start each day with silence. Before running headlong into another
day, do something relaxing for 12 minutes upon waking. It may be
meditating, stretching or reading inspirational literature. According
to the National Institutes of Health, our cortisol levels ("the stress
hormone" produced by the adrenal glands) are highest between 6 and 8 in
the morning, when we first get out of bed. Most people have coffee and
turn on the news. That's the worst thing we can do. Studies have shown
that only 12 minutes of quiet in the morning can bring down the
stress-hormone levels, and get you off to a better start that will last
all day. Click here to continue...
