Leonie shares her journey and her profound experience of ten days without a single peep. Vipassana&amp;nbsp;originated from Burmese monk named Medawi in 1728. The&amp;nbsp;Vipassan\u0101 movement, also referred to as the&amp;nbsp;Insight Meditation Movement, stems from a number of branches of modern&amp;nbsp;Therav\u0101da&amp;nbsp;Buddhism&amp;nbsp;designed to attain&amp;nbsp;awakening. The technique of Vipassana meditation is a practical way to achieve peace of mind and live a happy, productive life. It is learned by attending a 10-day residential course with a qualified teacher where the student is free from distractions so that the reality within can be observed. This technique helps practitioners come out of suffering.
