    Great wisdom here. Silence is such a powerful tool in communication. Most of us don't use it nearly enough.

      I agree - modern radio presenters are all motormouths who seem afraid of not filling every second with speech. Silence is golden!

    I have always had a hard time not oversharing. It has affected my work situations, mostly. I've been trying really hard lately not to talk. I even switched jobs to be able to start fresh and keep my life more private. It's hard because I have always been too trusting of others. I don't really think before I speak, and it's gotten me into really awkward situations. Thank you for this.

    After James Nestor's book Breath came out, I tried his suggestion to tape my lips together to force myself to breathe through my nose for health reasons.
    Over a week off from work, I taped my lips together most of the time. It was so therapeutic.
    My energy, compassion, and inner peace increased.
    My impulsivity and ego decreased.
    Similar to meditation.
    I recommend it to the curious.

    • @EC-yd9yv
      @EC-yd9yv 9 місяців тому +3

      It would probably take tape to keep my mouth shut too😂 much discipline n self control for sure. A must.

    • @susanswinny588

      3M Nexcare paper tape 1-inch wide tape.
      I tear off an inch of tape (1 inch square) and place over the center of my closed mouth.
      It will come off easily when you're ready.
      You'll be able to breathe through your mouth but it's there as a reminder, not to clamp the mouth shut.
