Most people who book a silent retreat are a little afraid of it. That is normal, and it usually lasts about a day.
What if I get bored?
You will, at some point. Boredom is often the doorway to rest. Notice it, and keep walking slowly.
Can I talk if I need to?
Yes. You can always speak to a teacher. Silence is a support, not a rule to break yourself on.
