Take a walk without headphones and let God get a word in.
GRATITUDE
GRATITUDE
Something is always playing, which means there is never a gap long enough for a thought to finish. Silence feels uncomfortable at first because everything you have been outrunning arrives in it. That is also why it works. A walk with nothing in your ears is one of the few places God can say something without competing with a playlist.
Go fifteen minutes with the phone in your pocket and the earbuds left at home. Do not set an intention or turn it into a whole practice. Walk, let it be boring, and pay attention to whatever surfaces around the fourth minute.
What might you hear on a walk with your headphones off?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
