Send us a textIt might seem ironic to talk about silence in a podcast episode, but today we're discussing silence with our first guest of the season, Lauren Revay. If you've been following the Hildegard Collective for awhile now, you might recognize her name as she's written a couple of wonderful pieces on beauty for our blog. This episode comes just in time for the beginning of the Lenten season. Lauren speaks not just about the necessity of external silence, but also of the importance of cultivating internal silence as well. As musicians, we're especially surrounded by sound all the time, but silence is necessary for growth in the spiritual life. If you're seeking to deepen your ability to cultivate silence, or just simply wanting to learn more about it, this podcast episode is a must-listen.
