Send us Fan MailApril 15, 2025Love You MoreEp 59: So, I Went on a Silent RetreatEpisode summary:Last month Jen went on a silent retreat and we're lucky enough to have a front row seat to the debrief of her experience. The journey to a silent retreat started when her life coach, Helen, introduced her to the work of Amy Johnson—the woman who facilitated the retreat. Amy’s book Just a Thought, along with her other teachings, deeply resonated with Jen and helped her see herself in a way no other form of therapy had before.After following Amy’s work for several months, Jen felt called to take the leap and experience a silent retreat firsthand. For Jen, the retreat was a powerful and grounding experience that she highly recommends. And she leaves us with the reminder that beneath the busyness of everyday life, there’s always a place of calm and stillness waiting to be found.Favorite Quotes:“Silence, for her, was such a powerful experience.”-Jen“I had this deep moment of feeling like I was held by something.”-Jen“By the end of the retreat…I felt my energy just continuing to grow.”-Jen "When you’re in that space of silence everything is so much more vivid."-Jen“…underneath all of it is this calm still place.”-JenResources Just a Thought Changeable Podcast Dr Amy Johnson's Website My Secret is Silence Sweet Potato ToothSubstack Jennifer's Instagram McDaniel Nutrition Therapy Instagram McDaniel Nutrition Therapy Website Support the show
