In this short French monologue, Maria Kulas EMBA explains the concept of extreme silent retreats conducted in total darkness, where participants are confined to a room with a bed, yoga mat, and meditation cushion, receiving food through a small window. She notes that such retreats can last from 24 hours up to two weeks and are intended to provoke deep self‑awareness. Maria clarifies that she has never experienced such a retreat and does not intend to undertake a two‑week dark retreat, despite her regular meditation practice and occasional trips to India for dietary detoxes. She frames these dark retreats as an extreme, “ninja‑level” practice beyond her current pursuits.
