Episode Notes:

• When choosing a retreat: listen to your heart and allow it to guide your decision.  *We do not recommend attempting a 30-day silent retreat for your first retreat. 
• The retreat was based on love and kindness. Allow your heart to feel loving and kind.        
• If the world presents us with something uncomfortable, if you sit long enough, you can become comfortable and then attach to it.
