  • Summary

  • JD's younger brother Jesse is a guest on the show and shares about  his experience from a 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat, where the focus was on building sensory awareness of physical sensations in the body.  The retreat can be physically and mentally challenging, but can lead to feelings of gratitude, realization, and accomplishment.   Jesse personally found that the retreat had a profound impact on them, leading to a fundamental shift in behavior.
