How do you know you’re in love? It’s a similar question. Some people feel it very strongly, others more faintly, but everyone feels it.
Signs that you need darkness therapy
- You feel run off your feet and need to “switch off”
- You feel the need to “switch off” even on holiday, when all you do is rest
- You feel inner restlessness and nervousness
- You feel something is missing, but you don’t know what
- You have been through a tragedy close to you and need to be alone
- You are looking for light and love and still can’t find them
- You have already tried “everything” and still feel sad and empty inside
When exactly is the time for a dark retreat?
- You will feel the desire to go on a dark retreat right inside you
- You can happily ignore your mind’s attempts to tell you it’s pointless 🙂
- Thoughts that you don’t need a dark retreat are completely normal
- Emotions such as panic and fear are normal too
- Worrying about getting bored during a dark retreat is normal too
- A dark retreat is illogical, incomprehensible and unnatural … and that’s normal too

!!! Beware of know-it-alls !!!
Please take advice from someone who has actually been on a dark retreat. A person who has never been in the dark is in no way qualified to talk about it; all they will give you is a mix of prejudices and assumptions.
