Quiet Day

An informal day that invites you to switch the noise off for a while and hear your own thoughts. Even the loudest team benefits from a pause.

How it is celebrated: people mute notifications, put the phone away, walk in a park or just sit in silence with a cup of tea. Some offices try an hour with no meetings and no chatter.

Hearing experts treat about 85 decibels over eight hours as the limit of safe exposure. Louder noise over a long time can damage hearing.
