Quiet Space: please share your ideas on how we manage this in our busy lives?

Adelaide is currently very busy with its festival season and as a result someone has started a sharing of "QuietSpaces"? Feel this is a great idea and thought to share it here.

People are posting pictures or descriptions of their quiet place when they need a break from the busyness of the city or their life. This city in particular has some really delightful green spaces but interestingly people are also nominating small alleyways, etc. this will give the local council some more ideas about how to make these currently dark and dingy places more attractive to users.

Let's join in and share our ideas for a "Quiet Space"? Am sure we can come up with some very creative ideas ...

Eg switch all gadgets off for ten minutes, etc

Topics: Head space Quiet inner calm
