Solitude - The powerful influence on your personal growth And transformation.

In solitude you can become an observer of your own thoughts and understand things for what they really are.

Quiet times and silence allow for contemplation and self-examination. You will discover answers to some questions that have been bothering you. These insights will lead to self-mastery.

• Connect with nature.

Walk away from the maze of information, people and your toxic environment. You have to withdraw from the crowd sometimes, to get in touch with yourself and find serenity. Take long walks on the beach or in the serene countryside.

Allow your senses to interact with nature. See the world with new eyes. Look and notice things that you have not become aware of before.

• Sit quietly and enjoy the silence.

You have to learn to sit quietly, be still and enjoy the silence. In solitary you will uncover the pleasures of being alone. You improve your alertness and mental capacity in your period of seclusion.

Solitary helps you get back in touch with the world that has fascinated you once. You may recall your dreams that may have died because of the chaos and distractions. You can get attuned to the signals within that have been trying to catch your attention.

• Engage in activities that bring joy and personal satisfaction.

Stop battling with your problems. Find solace by doing things that give you satisfaction. Go sailing, fishing or get yourself to paint and draw.

Write your thoughts and reflect on them. Write on to bring out your awareness and understanding.

• Retreat and nourish your soul.

Give yourself space and get some privacy. Relax and rest without any interruption to nourish your mind and spirit.

Switch off your hand phone and leave all your workload and problems behind. Detach yourself from the daily demands. Give your soul the attention it needs.
