𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐙𝐨𝐫𝐧 & 𝐋𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐳 are the authors of a fascinating book called 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐧: 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝑺𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒂 𝑾𝒐𝒓𝒍𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝑵𝒐𝒊𝒔𝒆. In a world that is louder than ever, the book invites us to rethink our definition of silence—not just as the absence of noise, but as a presence that can bring us energy, clarity, & deeper connection. It’s not just the noise in our ears, but the noise on our screens and in our heads. With the average person sending/receiving 125 emails a day and with the WHO ranking noise pollution as second only to air pollution in its impact on human wellbeing, it’s clear that modern society has lost its connection to silence. While mindfulness can help us cope with the onslaught of noise, research shows that few people maintain a meditation practice over time. We need more accessible and enduring ways of finding clarity and renewal. We are reminded that there is still silence left in our world. Zorn & Marz show us where to find it. In this podcast, with the same techniques Zorn and Marz have taught to the U.S. Congress, NASA, Harvard, and Google, we discuss: 1. How do we determine how much noise is too much and how much silence is golden? 2. Why do you see silence as a solution to so many complex challenges we face today? 3. You talk about how silence can help us “move beyond a point & counterpoint culture,” what do you mean by this? 4. How exactly does the book help people better understand silence? 5. Do u feel it’s noisier now than in other time in history? What makes today different? 6. What did the 2020 pandemic do to change the noise of the world? What’s possible now that may not have been possible before? 7. Silence can be a pretty bad thing, too, can’t it? Such as when silence is complacency in the face of injustice. We even heard that sometimes that “silence is violence.” 8. How their is irony in writing a 300+ page book about silence. Why not publish a bunch of blank pages? 9.They asked one question—“What’s the deepest silence you’ve ever known?”—to an extraordinarily diverse range of people including luminaries in arts, politics, science, business, & other fields–what surprised them most about what people told you? 10. Why is silence ‘Golden’? 11. What is exactly is silence in the mind and how can you achieve that without being in a monastery like environment? Is there really such a thing as silence? 12. Health benefits of spending time in silence? What r they? 13. How virtually all the world’s great religious & spiritual traditions point to silence as a pathway to truth—what do they mean by this? 14. How answers to the biggest personal & global challenges we face might not come through more thinking or talking. How does silence help us face those challenges? 15. What’s possible for us if we tune in to silence? 16. How can we find silence in the middle of a busy, noisy day? 17. What are recommendations for finding deeper, more immersive, silence? 18. How can we integrate silence into our lives with friends & family? 19. If silence is such a great thing–why do we avoid it?
