The Silent Retreat

Join me as I recount my first silent retreat experience at Bethel Farm, New Hampshire. For five days, I disconnected from phones, computers, and books to embrace silence and face my inner thoughts and conditioned mind experience. Encouraged by my Ashtanga yoga teacher, Rich Ray, I bravely confronted my anxieties and fears, eventually finding some peace within. Set amidst the serene backdrop of Bethel Farm, I share the challenges and rewards of navigating this transformative journey, shedding light on the powerful benefits of silence and meditation.

Important show notes:

• A resistant mind could mean you are ready
• Its all in your head - how thoughts shape your life
• The conditioned mind can be overcome to set us free
• There's a childhood joy in the present moment, but its hard to find with all our distractions
