What if the most serious personal and global challenges won't be solved with more thinking or talking?

The world is louder than ever. It's not just the noise in our ears, but also the noise on our screens and in our heads. 'Silence is golden,' the adage goes. But how do we find it in times like these?

Justin Zorn and Leigh Marz take us on an unlikely journey exploring why silence is essential for physical health, mental clarity, professional fulfilment, nourishing relationships, ecological sustainability and vibrant community. Drawing on lessons from neuroscience, philosophy, business, politics, activism and the arts, Golden teaches us how to go beyond the ordinary rules and offers tools of mindfulness to help individuals, organisations and whole societies dial down the noise and reclaim pristine quiet.

Quietly profound and constantly surprising, Golden is a field guide to finding silence.
