The Power Of Privacy

A desire for seclusion may come over you today as you question the disassociation you feel from life’s rigors. You may be in a quiet and reflective mood that compels you to put aside your obligations for the day in order to seek out the soothing embrace of a private personal space. The lingering effects of recent stresses can weigh heavily on your heart and mind, leaving you feeling exhausted, tense, and distracted. Time spent in solitude may provide the perfect antidote. There, away from worldly stimuli, you can look within yourself in order to determine the cause of your anxiety. You may discover today that your yearning for rest and relaxation was not a passing fancy but a very real need communicated to you by your body and your mind.

Each of us needs to retreat into a private place from time to time to recharge our physical, intellectual, and emotional batteries that are drained by our many worldly endeavors. Many people fear this type of isolation, however, because they are unsure what notions will arise from the quagmire of their unconscious minds when they do not have the noise of the world to shield them from their innermost thoughts. Privacy and solitude afford us an opportunity to rest after periods of intense labor and reconnect with the quiet voices of our inner selves. When alone, nothing will come between us and the rejuvenating powers of deep, introspective reflection. The solitude you sink into today will provide you with the peace you require to understand the true nature of your needs.
