10 days with place to sleep, food to eat at no financial cost. Entirely donation run with volunteers.
The not talking part becomes easy when there's no one to talk to. Sitting still is another story haha but that becomes easy eventually as well..
Lessons & tips: I recommend Vipassana, The Art of Living, to everyone.
Just be :)
Remain aware.
Remember things are always changing.
Resources: Energy/God whatever keeps my heart beating and my lungs breathing.
