In today's episode, I'm sharing a conversation I had with my best friend during her surgery recovery week, when the house unexpectedly went quiet and she started running through a list of hobbies to pick up to fill the silence. 

Tricia Hersey writes in Rest is Resistance: A Manifesto that we don't have to be everything, that we don't have to know everything, that we don't have to do everything, that there is space for the unknown and space for curiosity and mystery, and that we are allowed to stay here for a while. 

Today's episode is about the cultural script that says empty time is a problem to solve, the spiritual alternative of being human beings instead of human doings, and what becomes possible when we stop filling the quiet and start living inside of it. 

Question to carry into your day:
Where in your life is the quiet asking you to stay a little longer before you fill it back up? 

If the loop with food, your weight, your body, dieting, and the whole starting-over cycle is at least partly about not knowing how to be in your own quiet, the Stop Starting Over System was built for you.
