We Meditated for 100 Hours Straight… But Didn't Expect THIS.

What happens when you do nothing but eat, sleep, and meditate for 10 days straight? We both attended a 10 day Vipassana meditation retreat led by S.N. Goenka to find out. We sat 10 hours a day for 10 days, so 100 hours straight of meditation. And we expected it to be hard, but this was by far, the most painful experience of our entire lives. But, as most painful experiences do, it also completely changed our lives.
