I've been to a lot of retreats and I have seen within my self and experienced helping others...there are a lot of dark closets, quicksand traps, haunted basements and attics that need to be cleaned out...many people freak out from overwhelming boredom...I always welcomed boredom...it was better than the horrible back pain I used to experience...that went away at the end of my first retreat never to return...but if I had run away from that pain instead of sitting through the pain and eventually letting go, I would of never experienced what happened after that ;-)
