Thank you for sharing your work!

Years ago, at a mindfulness meditation retreat, I heard the word "skilful" used in a very specific way.

Since then, I've tried to become more skilful, and your reply above really evinces the "ongoing journey" nature of that work.

I wish you the very best in your journey!

I like that. Appreciate your words and likewise.

Great way to put it: "skill"

Learned/experience/must practice the skill of getting comfortable!

Tell me more about retreat? In overall terms? Worth it? Worth doing again?

Also - did it include any substances? Not judging one way or another but I know that some psychedelic concepts align with some retreats.
