✨My vow of silence has ended. I feel refreshed and renewed, and certainly learned some lessons.💗🧘‍♀️📿
⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was not 100% silent the whole time. I still had to work and speak to my children. But I did my very best to focus on listening first, only respond when necessary, and only respond with words that would benefit the situation.
⠀⠀⠀
I wasn’t perfect. I’ll never be perfect. I did try my best.
⠀⠀⠀
And I did stay completely off social media for that time! That was the real challenge!😉 
⠀⠀⠀⠀
But I did learn that I can speak less and be a more effective communicator. I learned that sometimes saying nothing at all - just simply being present in the moment - is the most powerful response you can give. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀
And I learned that days off from social media are highly beneficial to bring your focus to the world around you. I just may make Sunday a regular day off. We’ll see 💕
⠀⠀
I will try to not let this truly be the end of my vow of silence, but simply the beginning of new habits and skills that I try to continue honing.

Have you ever taken a vow of silence? How did it go for you?

Happy Friday! Namaste 🙏🏻💖
