Untold: The Retreat

A podcast presented by the special investigations team at the Financial Times. Host Madison Marriage delves into the realm of the Goenka network, a promoter of an intense meditation practice called Vipassana. Annually, thousands partake in Goenka retreats, with many praising the transformative experience. However, some attendees endure unexpected challenges during these meditation retreats, grappling with profound fear, a fractured sense of reality, and a notable departure from their usual selves.

The team is hard at work on another season–so stay tuned. Until then, we'd love to hear about you and what you think about the show. We're running a short survey and anyone who takes part before August 29th will be entered into a prize draw for a pair of Bose QuietComfort 35 Wireless Headphones.Click here to take the survey: https://www.feedback.ft.com/c/r/pods?show=untold.You can read our T&Cs here
