Concept: Quietness gives one strength. When we have a “place” of solace, safety, and quiet, then creativity, imagination, and self-expression emerge naturally. One way we feel safe is when we have a quiet, safe place physically. The Quiet/Safe Place Tool is a way of remembering our quiet stillness. When we listen from the quiet place within our hearts, we make space to hear our natural wisdom.
Tagline: I remember my quiet, safe place.
Hand Gesture: Place hands over ears while bending head slightly forward. Close eyes and “go to” your quiet/safe place… any time.
We all have quiet places, real or imagined, inside or outside of us where we can go to calm, soothe, and quiet ourselves.
