The 3 S's: Silence, Solitude & Stillness
Silence, solitude, & stillness are spiritual disciplines in and of themselves. Individually they are practices applied to communing with God. And, together they are an avenue toward a companionship, growth, and transformation. The three S's are also part of many (most. all?!) other contemplative practices: Lectio Divina, the Prayer of Examen, Centering Prayer (and so many more) all incorporate at least one of the 3 S's. These three are the incubators for relationship with God and are considered "home base" for getting in touch with yourself, your truest self. Resistance to any, if not all, of the three is totally normal. We invite you to be curious instead of prickly, kind instead of critical. Let your curiosity lead you to further exploration of silence, solitude, or stillness. Then notice how you begin to crave more of the three S's.
