Anything that makes you spend intimate time in your own mind will change your life and thinking to some degree.

No I don’t practice daily. I did for a few days after the retreat, then went back to my current meditation and yoga practice, which, I admit, is much less disciplined than Vipassana. 🙂 Still, I have definitely found a greater level of equanimity and joy, partly through my Vipassana experience and partly through other life experiences.

I have practiced Vipassana in Dharamsalla, India. It was truly one of the most powerful experiences I’ve went through.

Do you continue to practice daily?

I did it this past Dec 26 – Jan 6 in Joshua Tree. Most amazing and probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever done – totally life changing. Everyone has a different experience – my journal sounds very different from yours, but the entire point is to be present and learn the practice of Vipassana. Awesome! Sarah, thanks for a great post!
