'All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.' - Blaise Pascal

What are you like at sitting without any distractions, and just being? Not great I imagine, as it is something most people resist and avoid like the plague. Our culture is built on continual doing and a cult of productivity. But sitting and just being, while frequently torturous at first, can transform into a blissful experience as the thinkiung mind quietens down to reveal the innate joy lying underneath.

This was a lesson Jenna Ashford - elite GB hockey player turned psychologist - discovered after spending 10 days on a Vipassana meditation retreat.
