Silence Day is a special day on July 10 when followers of a spiritual teacher named Meher Baba choose not to speak for 24 hours. They do this to remember his teachings and to focus more on their inner thoughts. It's like taking a break from talking to think about important things inside their hearts. This can help people feel peaceful and more connected to themselves. Even kids can try it to see what it's like to be quiet for a little while and think or just enjoy the sounds around them.
How to celebrate Silence Day?
To celebrate Silence Day, start by finding a cozy and peaceful spot in your home or outside. Bring a soft blanket and your favorite stuffed toy. Spend some time just listening to the sounds around you, like birds chirping or the wind blowing. Try drawing a picture or writing in your diary about what you hear and feel without speaking. You can also relax with a good book or do a puzzle quietly. Spend time thinking happy thoughts or imagining adventures in your mind. At dinner, you can spend time enjoying a quiet, delicious meal with your family.
