Three-Year Retreat, Pt. 1

In the spirit of the holidays, we’re sharing an intimate discussion Lama Mitchell and I recently had about the Three-Year Retreat we completed in March of 2020.  You’ll hear an overview of the traditional three-year retreat and specifics about ours; how Phish always had a sacred thread of practice to us, even before we knew a Buddhist framework for it; why a sense of spaciousness makes everything more beautiful; what it’s been like re-entering the world; and a remembrance of our unique and truly special retreat brother, Gelek Namgyal, one of two retreatants who passed away during our retreat.Join us at 4pm EST on New Year's Day for our "New Year, Know Mind" intro to meditation class online.  Register here: https://tinyurl.com/lamatabootnewyearSupport the showOur website is lamataboot.com, Instagram: @lamataboot, and YouTube: @lamatabootFind Lama Adam at lamaadam.com.
