Monk for a month?

I was reading about a course that encourages disconnecting from not just technology but society in general. No tech, no speaking, no meat, no alcohol, no touching, no eye contact and so on. Sounds more extreme than no nut November

Those who’ve done it (the Monk class) say it changed them. Good for them . But I don’t think it’s for me.

Can you live like a monk for a month? Or do you wanna party like it’s 99? 🤘🏼


Update
Here’s the link to what I was reading. It’s a 30day course at U of Penn

I've done several vipassna retreats ... highly recommended. Tough but worth it!

@constance Those who go to similar retreats always have positive feedback. I don’t know if I can sit on my ass or stay quiet for long
@MrGrumpy only way is to try ....
