It is said that the vipassana course comes at the moment when the student most needs it. It was my case! Since the beginning of the year I had the feeling of trampling on the same comfortable path between episodes of keeping on extending my smooth routine and the need to shake things up a bit.

I was seeing these ten days of meditation as a strong breeze capable of dissipating the thick fog that weighed down my thoughts and uplift my energy. I was anticipating a remedy to make me move forward again. But I was far from imagining that the experience would be so demanding and painful …. before being rewarding.
