This is one of my favorites you've written lately!! I relate so much both as a yoga student and teacher. Silence is powerful. Some days I want to chat before class (as a student). Other days, I want to sit in silence and be in my body. I admire you for being able to cook, clean, and do other things in complete silence. This is hard for me, but something I want to get better at. The point of it helping you think of your next writing topic is so real and true! Silence fuels creativity.
