Suggestions:
- To fully enjoy the benefits of your silent retreat and connecting with nature, it is strongly advised to put aside, as much as possible, anything that may distract from the inner journey.
- For most people, this means disconnecting from their electronic devices (phone, computer, camera, iPod, tablet, etc.)
- For others, it might be to refrain from reading distracting books, or maybe to avoid taking many photos.
- Moreover, it is important to respect the privacy of others by not taking photos of them without their knowledge or consent.
