Today you are going to hear from Scott Berman founder of Sky Cave Retreats.  The first darkness retreat center in the US.  Throughout the last decade, he has spent over two years in self-guided solo retreats in remote wilderness. He did his first darkness retreat in 2012 and has spent over 70 days in multiple solo darkness retreats, including a couple with his wife Jill. 

Over the last 4 years, he has supported over 500 people in their dark retreats and has been pioneering the darkness retreat movement at his center in Southern Oregon. 

In this episode, Scott covers:

✅ The History of Darkness Retreats and it’s evolution to what it is today.
