Brown PHd.<\/p>\n<p>After a nine year pause on spiritual retreats, this was my first extended in-person retreat with a living teacher.<\/p>\n<p>I did also attend a 10-day silent Vipassana Retreat in summer 2019, but that was accompanied by recordings from S.N. Goenka. That was a powerful experience in its own right, but we weren\u2019t receiving teachings from a living, breathing, responsive human being.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a totally different thing and, in my experience, they don\u2019t really compare.<\/p>\n<p>I am no stranger to retreats. In my years living at the ashram, I did countless 10 and 21-day silent meditation retreats. Some directly guided by my teacher, and others completely solo.<\/p>\n<p>I know how powerful they can be.<\/p>\n<p>And this experience was no exception. In fact, it was healing and heart opening in ways I couldn\u2019t have anticipated.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode, I share my experience of going on a Mahamudra meditation retreat with Daniel P. Brown.<\/p>\n<p>I encourage you to pair this podcast with my interview with Dan Brown and his former student, John Churchill.
