In this episode, we explore the profound wisdom that lives in the dark.
Sjanett sits down with Ananda-Jey Wojciech, founder of The Ultimate Darkness Retreat in Poland, to talk about what happens when you turn off all the lights — literally and metaphorically. What remains when your senses slow down, and there is nothing left to distract you?
Ananda-Jey shares how darkness can be both confronting and deeply healing. In the absence of external light, you meet yourself — and discover your own inner luminosity. Together, they discuss silence, surrender, the body’s intelligence, and how transformation unfolds when you stop trying to control it.
A conversation about trust, stillness, and finding home within yourself.

How to stay mindful in challenging times | #117 Dr. Shauna Shapiro
Dr. Shauna Shapiro doet al meer dan 20 jaar wetenschappelijk onderzoek naar mindfulness en compassie. Ze is professor in de psychologie, gaf een TedX talk over “the power of mindfulness” (welke meer dan 2 miljoen keer bekeken is) en ze schreef mijn favoriete mindfulness boek “Good Morning, I Love You”. Ik vroeg haar hoe we mindfulness toe kunnen passen in deze fase van isolement en wat te doen als we vastlopen in onze oordelen en gedachten. Daarnaast komt onderzoek doen op het snijvlak van spiritualiteit en wetenschap aan bod en deelt ze haar favoriete boeken. Een korte maar krachtige aflevering (in het Engels), enjoy!
