Serenity Now

Rebecca K. Horton, RDA

Yesterday I was so tired I didn’t think I could even go to dinner with my husband.

Why?  Well, the noisy old day and all the stress had just about worn me out.

I decided to do an experiment.  I recently was fitted for custom ear plugs while at the BMW Motorcycles of America Rally. It was held at the Des Moines Iowa Fairgrounds so it was a large meeting, with lots of vendors and attendees.  I stopped by the Big Ear Incorporated booth and a very nice young many by the name of Stone Hood took my impressions and made custom plugs while I waited.

The convention hall was so noisy you had to shout to be heard.  The moment he placed the impression material in my ear the noise stopped! I felt immediate relief and had one of those “aha!” Yet  “ahhhh“ moments.   I could hear him talking to me and another person who was asking questions, but no noise!  It was like a little vacation!

So yesterday when I was terribly exhausted, I went outside and sat on the steps, put my custom ear plugs in and took a five-minute SERENITY NOW break.  Just breathing in the fresh air and relaxing a bit.

In a few minutes, my energy returned and I was able to enjoy my evening.

Custom ear plugs by Big Ear Incorporated can do a lot more than just keep the wind quiet when you’re riding your motorcycle. Vacuuming the floors is easier, lawn mowing, weed eating, etc. Why suffer when you can relax and listen to your own thoughts? Ahhhhhhh……..  : )
