Ep.15
"Searching for Quiet"

with matt mikelsen

“When you get out into nature, or when you get out into a place that is a little bit quieter, choosing to use your hearing as a sense just like you use your eyes to gather information becomes really powerful, and really important, and we’re kind of at this point in our society … where we’re realizing that we’ve been disregarding what we’re hearing, and that noise pollution is pretty bad for us mentally, physically, in terms of our overall happiness and ability to pay attention… and the antidote to that is to experience quiet.” — Matt Mikelsen
