description: The Essential "Nourishment" We’ve Forgotten Long before our screens and streetlights, people across the world’s wisdom traditions knew something we’ve forgotten: that darkness is not empty, and it is not the enemy. It is as essential as rest or sleep for recovering wholeness and well-being. From the bardo practices of Tibetan Buddhism, to the ancient Greeks, to the vision quests of indigenous peoples and the contemplative cells of early Christian mystics, cultures everywhere discovered that time spent in deliberate darkness opens doors that daylight keeps closed. As Andrew puts it, “darkness is our primal home,” and we’ve wandered a long way from it. We’re Thirsty for a Kind of Rest That We Now Lack We are the most artificially lighted generation in history, and something essential went missing when we lost the night. Andrew calls it a kind of "darkness deficit disorder": like a body deprived of a vital nutrient, we feel the effects—restlessness, exhaustion, a strange inability to feel wonder—without recognizing the cause. Instead, we tend to reach for more: more light, more input, more doing. When what’s really needed is less. Darkness practice asks something refreshingly different. When the outer world of stimulation falls away, what remains is the natural, spacious ground of the mind, and a quality of rest and clarity most of us haven’t touched in years. You Don’t Need a Remote Temple or a Private Cave Andrew teaches that darkness is a necessary friend, and a vital source of creativity, healing, and transformation. It is not something to fear or overcome. In this live six-week online course, you’ll begin with a short session behind a simple eye mask and then build, week by week, at a pace that suits your life and nervous system, all in the comfort of your own home. Across six weekly sessions and two live Q&As, Andrew teaches you directly, adapting this revered practice to ordinary people navigating modern life.
