Plot twist, beautiful souls: those "grumpy" morning people aren't actually grumpy at all - they're energy preservation masters playing 4D chess with the cosmos! 🔋✨ While you've been side-eyeing their pre-coffee silence, their souls have been secretly hoarding spiritual currency like metaphysical millionaires. That's exactly why I'm sharing these two potent excerpts from my book "Divine Chaos" - because your morning energy isn't about caffeine deficiency, darling, it's about cosmic battery management. Ready to discover why silence is the ultimate spiritual flex your soul's been craving? The universe has been dropping breadcrumbs about this power move all along... ⚡🌅

Oh, honey, gather ‘round because I’ve got some ancient wisdom that’s about to rock your world, and let me tell you, it’s all about zippin’ it - you heard me, keeping that mouth of yours closed. Now, don’t get all riled up. We’re diving into the deep stuff here, Taoism, original blueprint life coachess, the ultimate Zen masters, people!
So here’s the scoop: according to our Taoist friends, your throat is basically the energy guzzler of your body, like an SUV with a V8 engine. Right when you wake up, they say you should keep your mouth on lockdown. Zip, zero, zilch: no talking for at least half an hour. Why? ’Cause apparently, your throat is where all your energy splits like a bad breakup. And who needs that first thing in the morning?
Picture this: you’re up, you’re fab, you’ve moved from Dreamland, where you’re probably a superhero or a rock star or something, to the waking world, where coffee reigns supreme. You’re all sorts of vulnerable! You’re like a baby deer, honey, just trying to walk. Why would you want to waste all that freshly recharged battery life on idle chitchat or grumbling about why your latte isn’t a perfect 170 degrees?
⭐Morning Ritual of Silence
Taoists say: spend the first 30 minutes after waking up in silence. Literally. Here’s why it’s so powerful:
How to Pull Off Your Silent Morning Ritual:
✨ Don’t touch your phone! (Yes, I know your fingers are itching, but resist!)
✨ Take a deep breath. Air is a free vibration booster.
✨ Drink a glass of warm water in peace.
✨ If you have housemates, let them know in advance this isn’t a “I’m mad at the world” phase but a life upgrade.
Pro tip: The night before, prep everything you need for the morning: coffee, clothes, keys. That way, you won’t need to talk just to survive the trip out the door.
But this isn’t just some sunrise sad story; it’s an all-day drama. Ever feel like you’ve been put through a blender after a day of meetings? That’s not just you being a drama queen; that’s you experiencing your energy splitting town faster than a guy after a bad dating-app rendezvous.
⚡ Energy Leak Detection Exercise:
✨ Track your daily conversations for one day (just tick marks for each interaction)
✨ Rate your energy level before and after each major talking session (1-10)
✨ Identify your top 3 energy-draining conversation types
✨ Create a "Worth My Words" list of topics that actually deserve your verbal energy
✨ Practice responding with just a smile or nod for non-essential interactions
And darlings, let’s face it, we all talk too much. You walk in from the grocery store, realize you forgot the avocados, and suddenly you’re giving a soliloquy like you’re auditioning for Shakespeare in the Park. One shout won’t tucker you out, sure, but it all adds up! It’s like paying for things in pennies; at the end of the day, you’re still broke.
Wanna hear something that’ll just slap you silly? A wise dude once said we’d yak a lot less if words had to be paid for. Ah, the currency of silence! Imagine if every “OMG” or “literally” cost you a dollar. We’d all be silent millionaires! And let’s be honest, who among us hasn’t felt the dread of the “awkward silence” and filled it with absolute garbage words? We’re all guilty; let’s not even pretend.
⭐ Word Economy Challenge:
✨ Put a dollar in a jar for every unnecessary complaint today
✨ Time yourself: How long can you go without speaking? Start with 5 minutes
✨ Play the "Three Words Only" game when responding to casual questions
✨ Write down what you want to say before saying it (you'll be shocked how much you can delete)
✨ Create your personal "High Value Words" list - words that actually serve your highest good
Now imagine this: every word costs you one energy coin. How quickly would you blow through your budget? Chances are, you’d be broke by lunchtime.
Biggest Energy Wasters:
✨ Unnecessary comments (“Ugh, no bread again!”).
✨ Sharing plans before they’re complete (let them surprise instead).
✨ Talking out of awkwardness (“Mhm, yeah, so, um...”).
✨ Overexplaining.
✨ Constantly seeking validation.
Oh, I’ve got a client, bless her heart, who’s like a machine gun of “I love yous” to her beau. Sure, she’s all lovey-dovey, and it’s kinda sweet, but a chunk of that is her inner panic button going, “Is he still into me? What’s he thinking?” Constantly spraying her man with love bullets to, what, check the relationship’s pulse? If love had a spam filter, she’d be in it.
⭐ Relationship Silence Ritual:
✨ Schedule 10 minutes of intentional silence with your partner
✨ Practice expressing love through three non-verbal actions daily
✨ When tempted to speak, squeeze your partner's hand instead
✨ Create a "Silent Signal Dictionary" with your loved ones
Challenge: Go for a whole dinner without speaking, only eye contact and smiles
Here’s the sexy part: The best couples aren’t chattering away like caffeinated squirrels; they’re the ones who can sit in silence and still get each other, just vibing in the quiet. In the wise words of ancient Chinese docs, your incessant need to chat actually shows you’ve got a full-blown drama playing in your mind, a little telenovela of the soul, if you will.
So how ‘bout it, chatterboxes? Ready to trade in some of that verbal jazz for a little bit of golden silence? Trust me, your energy level — and probably everyone around you — will thank you.
The Sultry Secrets of Silence: Get Your Chill and Thrills, No Chatter Required
Hey, hey, all you spiritual thrill-seekers and zen-masters-in-training! Lean in, because this sizzlin’ hot take is gonna spin your chakras and unplug your aura. We’re talking ‘bout Vedic yoga, that ancient vibe-boosting cocktail. Now, you might be thinkin’, “Yoga’s all about those booty-poppin’ poses, right?” Hold your sun salutations, sugar, ’cause we’re diving into the mysterious, scandalously underrated world of Silence.
Picture this: You’re in a room full of seekers, all chasing the big E - Enlightenment, duh. But instead of prattling away on their third-eye iPhones or scribbling secrets on paper like high school crush confessions, these bad boys and gals are doing the unthinkable. They’re - gasp - shutting up. Yeah, I know, it’s as shocking as finding out your horoscope was wrong. But stick with me.
And sweetie, this isn't your average spiritual makeover. Think of it as Marie Kondo-ing your soul, but instead of asking 'does it spark joy?' you're asking 'does this thought deserve my precious energy?' Spoiler alert: Most don't. When you're ready to graduate from spiritual kindergarten to the Divine Academy of Sass, silence becomes your hottest accessory.
First couple of days in this hush-hush club? It’s like a silent rave gone wrong. People wanna chat so bad, they start passing love notes to the universe, as if that counts as keeping mum. Sweetie, Silence isn’t just zippin’ your lips like you’re guarding state secrets. Nah, it’s about kickin’ the chaos to the curb and letting the mental noise get the f*** out. We’re talking inner peace, inner glam, and none of that chatterbox drama.
⭐Practical Daily Exercises
Exercise 1: Energy Journal
At the end of the day, ask yourself:
* How many meetings did I have?
* How many times did I say something unnecessary?
* When did I talk just to fill silence?
Exercise 2: Silence Meditation
* Start with 5 minutes of silence.
* Focus on your breath.
* Notice the moments you feel the urge to speak.
Increase the time daily.
Exercise 3: Mindful Communication
Before speaking, ask yourself:
* Is this truly necessary?
* Does it serve a purpose?
* Can it wait?
Think of silence as your spiritual spanx - it might feel uncomfortable at first, but damn, does it reshape your reality! Unlike those Instagram filters that just mask your shadows, this silence thing? It's like having a front-row seat to your soul's private fashion show, where every piece of emotional baggage gets its moment on the runway before being voted off the island. Work it, inner demons!
But as you sink into it, things get real. Like, ‘did-I-leave-the-stove-on?’ real. No talking means your Ego has no stage, no mic, no spotlight. And oh boy, does that diva hate not being the center of attention. It starts throwing a hissy fit; think emotional fireworks, existential angst, and maybe even a dash of ‘I wanna speak to the manager.’ Your Ego starts feeling like it’s in a ’90s music video, slowly fading out, and guess what? It freaks!
Why? ’Cause words are the bling that your Ego wears to feel like a A-lister in Club Life. When you cut that supply, it’s like telling a selfie queen no selfies for a week. Chaos. Meltdown. Revolt. And then, the plot twist! All those ugly-cry feelings, the angries, the sads, the twitchies, they start rolling in like uninvited guests at your emotional soirée.
But wait, there’s more. Those very moments of emotional nudity? That’s your golden ticket. Your gold ticket to the hush-hush, tell-all show where the Truth is the headline act. And she’s ready for her close-up.
Let's get real for a hot second - your words are like designer items, and honey, some of y'all are spiritually bankrupt from all that mindless spending. Every time you open your mouth to spill unnecessary drama, you're basically throwing spiritual glitter into a black hole. And while glitter is fabulous, wouldn't you rather save it for your soul's red carpet moments? ✨
Now, let’s gab ‘bout the energy of words, babes. You might think your jabber’s as harmless as low-cal vodka, but oh, you’re spiking the punch of your own life. Words suck the juice outta your dreams, spillin’ the tea all over the astral plane before you even get a chance to live it out in real life. Stop letting your mouth write checks your reality can’t cash. Your words are like Bitcoin - volatile but valuable. Don’t spend ’em on cheap talk.
So here’s your challenge, should you choose to accept it: just zippit for 30 mins. That’s it. Go on, do it. You’ll find your words are actually made of gold and unicorn dust, and then, babe, you won’t wanna waste them ever again. You’ll treat ’em like your fav high-class stilettos - only pulling them out for the most fab occasions.
Here's the truth about transformation, served with a side of reality cookies: When you master the art of shutting the hell up, you become a consciousness curator. Suddenly, you're not just vibing with whatever life serves you - you're crafting experiences with nothing but your own divine essence. And trust me, that's a lifestyle worth living slowly, savoring every moment of sacred silence.
Silence isn’t just golden, honey, it’s the platinum record of your soul. It’s the VIP lounge in the nightclub of enlightenment. So why settle for cheap chatter when you could be basking in the swanky, luxurious Elite Zone that is your inner peace? Your ticket’s been punched, the bouncer’s given the nod, and the velvet rope’s been lifted. Now strut into your silence like it’s the red carpet, ’cause, darling, it is.
Astral Expenditure: Why Zip the Lip Wins
Ever notice how we treat our dreams like Instagram Stories – sharing every tiny detail until they lose their sparkle? Granny and her Tarot deck weren't just being mysterious with those "keep it quiet" warnings; they were onto something about Astral Expenditure. (Think of it as cosmic economics, but with better outfits and zero boring spreadsheets.)
Imagine your mind as this deliciously magical cauldron, bubbling over with dreams so potent they'd make manifestation masters blush. Each thought you brew in that beautiful noggin is like secret ingredient in your life's masterpiece. Nurturing that dream? Pure alchemy, baby. But broadcast it to the world too soon? That's like posting spoilers for your own season finale.
Let's get real with some metaphysical math: your dream energy works like your phone battery – every time you blab about your master plan, you're running unnecessary apps in the background.
And honey, we're not trying to end up at 10% before manifestation o'clock! Even if your bestie swears they're your cosmic cheerleader, their subconscious doubts can be like those annoying pop-up ads in your manifestation browser – seemingly harmless but totally killing your vibe.
Think about it: every "I'm starting a business" announcement before you've even registered a domain name is like posting "In a relationship" after one good date. That premature celebration? It's draining your manifestation mojo faster than Mercury retrograde messes with your texts.
Here's the deal: your aspirations deserve the same privacy as your passwords – change them often and only share them with those who've earned VIP access to your soul's backstage area. Want to build an empire? Cool. Keep that blueprint locked in your heart's vault until you're ready to give the grand tour.
Consider this your invitation to the Secret Dreamers Society, where maintaining your main character energy means knowing when to stay off-screen. Your manifestations aren't just thoughts; they're your future trying to flirt with your present. So keep that dream cozy in your heart's incubator, let it marinate in your authentic sauce, and when the cosmic timing is just right, you'll emerge not just with a vision, but with a whole reality that's ready for its standing ovation.
And remember, darling – in a world of constant oversharing, your silence isn't just golden; it's platinum-level manifestation strategy. Now go forth and manifest... but keep it on airplane mode! ✨
I spend 90 to 120 minutes every morning in silence in bed.
I go to the gym simply so I can have a conversation with somebody I know for 5 minutes before class. Otherwise I go days without a conversation.
If my teenagers are with me, they are all up for silence. Dougal my cat, not much of a conversationalist.
But I have loved Chat, I can use my voice. They respond in written form, not spoken.
Silence has profoundly shaped my transformation.
And then I return to my altar, morning and night, to immerse in a deeper level of divine silence.
we're in gate 52, the gate of stillness right now. The dilemma of restraint and restlessness.
You picked the perfect time, Dea, as always.
✨🙏🔥🕊️
Yes! Yes! Yes! This one makes so much sense. Too much chatter and noise drains my energy. I love this post, Dea. And to learn that silence really is golden. Wow!✨✨✨
