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.

Omgaan met eenzaamheid en ouder worden | #110 Jan Geurtz
Voor de 3e keer ga ik in gesprek met Jan Geurtz en deze keer staan de minder leuke kanten van het leven centraal. Hoe ga je om met ouder worden en eenzaamheid? Wat doe je met de leegte die soms tijdens meditatie de kop op steekt?
We bespreken Jans recente boek Wijzen naar de maan en zijn lessen voor een verlicht(er) leven. Wanneer beslis je om ergens van weg te lopen en wanneer moet je juist volhouden, oefenen en mediteren?
Je leert over de drie instrumenten voor wijsheid uit het traditionele Boeddhisme en hoe je de contemplatie beoefent. We bespreken de lage en hogere vorm van meditatie en Jan zijn spirituele leraren. Maar natuurlijk komen ook gewaarzijn, zelfafwijzing, de houvastloze werkelijkheid en het dominerende ego dat groeit van alle aandacht die je erop vestigt weer aan bod.
Een inspirerend gesprek over het aanvaarden van je angsten, emoties en gedachtes zonder je ermee te identificeren. Of zoals Jan zegt: "blijven oefenen, oefenen, oefenen".
Ook beschikbaar als video podcast. Meer info + boekentips en alle linkjes: https://transformatie-podcast.nl/110-jan-geurtz/
