If you're looking to recover yourself and get out from under the influence, I would suggest you reach out to me through martinjohn com or find me on social once again.
Ever wondered what it’s like to spend nearly a week in complete darkness? In this episode of 'Recover Yourself', MartinJon takes us through his intense experience at The Hermitage Retreats in Guatemala. He spent 5.5 days in pitch black, a setting that pushed him to confront his deepest fears and rediscover himself in unexpected ways. This isn’t just a tale of isolation; it's a travelog filled with candid moments and raw reflections.
MartinJon shares how the absence of light became a canvas for introspection, allowing him to explore parts of his psyche often overshadowed by daily life. He reminisces about his childhood fascination with darkness and how this retreat reignited that sense of wonder. Talking to friends Robin Dluzen, Tom Torluemke, and Linda Dorman, he unpacks the mental and emotional hurdles he faced, offering listeners a glimpse into the transformative power of embracing the unknown.
If you're curious about unconventional paths to self-awareness or looking for inspiration to face your own fears, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in for an honest, thought-provoking journey into the heart of darkness.
