Silent eating
Everyday I eat at least one meal alone. I like to read and often like to read something while eating. I am realizing that reading can be a kind of noise that occupies my brain and I become disconnected with my body and the act of eating. So I am trying to be aware of nourishing my body while I fast my mind. Mind and body...one. I want to become more comfortable with this and continue it after the 60 days. I want to miss the silence of not reading.

The silence was felt here like a warm cover around me. And as I write I hear the ping of the expanding metal of the furnace as it gets ready to blow warm air through the house. I hear the sound of swooooooooooooooooooosh from the air purifier that blows across the old basement walls...I thank you for reminding me to return to silence. What I notice I am alone but there is so much nise in my head I can't hear what the house is saying to me. Thank you for helping come back.

nise is short for noise
