Sound Proof System
Soundproofing is any means of reducing the intensity of sound with respect to a specified source and receptor. There are several basic approaches to reducing sound: increasing the distance between source and receiver, using noise barriers to block or absorb the energy of the sound waves, using damping structures such as sound baffles, or using active antinoise sound generators.
Soundproofing affects sound in two different ways: noise reduction and noise absorption. Noise reduction simply blocks the passage of sound waves through the use of distance and intervening objects in the sound path. Noise absorption operates by transforming the sound wave. Noise absorption involves suppressing echoes, reverberation, resonance and reflection. The damping characteristics of the materials it is made out of are important in noise absorption. The wetness or moisture level in a medium can also reflect sound waves, significantly reducing and distorting the sound traveling through it, making moisture an important factor in soundproofing.
The use of distance to dissipate sound is straightforward. The energy density of sound waves decreases as they spread out, so that increasing the distance between the receiver and source results in a progressively lesser intensity of sound at the receiver. In a normal three dimensional setting, the intensity of sound waves will be attenuated according to the inverse square of the distance from the source. Using mass to absorb sound is also quite straightforward, with part of the sound energy being used to vibrate the mass of the intervening object, rather than being transmitted. When this mass consists of air the extra dissipation on top of the distance effect is only significant for typically more than 1000 meters, depending also on the weather and reflections from the soil.

Best Way of Sound Proofing a Room?
What is the best way of soundproofing my room?
I have one window,, and one sliding balcony door.
I need to somehow Make the room incredibly silent. Separate it from the outside world.
Not only the window and the door, the walls as well.

You would require to have curtains, carpets.

Yes it is. I have a cousin in a band who practises from his garage. They cut the rubber tires into smaller bits, and packed them into the walls of the garage… it works very effectively.
Sound-proofing works by using barriers to absorb and block the sound-energy passing through the wall. Rubber does this very effectively.
If you're looking for a more professional solution, I believe you can also purchase sound-proof dry wall panels. A quick google brought up two: Acoustiblok and QuietRock. This would require complete renovation of your walls though =P
