When several years ago a dear friend of mine shared with me her experience of attending a 10 day silent meditation, I thought that there's no way I could ever do that.
Well last November I received my Divine Guidance not to travel to another country, or take off on a road trip like I usually do with the beginning of the year, but to attend Vipassana the 10 day silent meditation.
Because I live my life by following this inner Divide Guide, I knew it was my time to go, so I accepted the calling and registered for the end of February session. The spaces get filled within the first minute of being open for registration. I got accepted into the session; so clearly it was my time to go.
🌼I am proud to say that I completed the 10 day Vipassana silent meditation!!! Something I didn't think I could do...I DID IT!🌼
Nothing about this experience was easy...every day we were woken up by a gong at 4 am and our days ended at 9:30pm. We were not to speak or interact in any way shape or form with fellow participants. No phone, no TV, no reading, no writing, no exercising.
You are working on retraining your subconscious mind...10 hours a day in silence with yourself in darkness.
The experience was hard, but also incredible. You can't put into words what happens to you internally when you go through such an experience. You come out a different person.
I feel:
✨ Even more aware of my mind and body than before
✨ Inner calm and peace
✨ Spaciousness in my mind and body
✨ Being more observant instead of reactive
This is proof that what you think might be impossible, becomes possible when you listen to your inner Divine Guidance!

You can see some of the beautiful nature art the women co-created without ever interacting with each other.
