EP374: An inch deep and a mile wide

An inch deep and a mile wide typically describes a person with superficial knowledge of many things, but without deep knowledge of anything. A generalist, broad but shallow.

Is experience an inch deep and a mile wide? 

In this episode, we use this phrase to explore the depths and dimensions of the felt sense, thought, emotion, and even the sense of self.

I will be leading two Silent Retreats in 2026.

The primary retreat (hosted and facilitated by me) will be in Taos, New Mexico, February 22-27. The second retreat (facilitated by me) will be in Hendersonville, North Carolina, February 1-6.

Both retreats will provide a supportive space for you to steep in your essential being. You’ll immerse in what’s always here, unchanging, beyond the pull of thoughts, feelings and identities, in the absence of everyday distractions and conditioning.

The retreats will be small, so space is limited. You can check out all the details at https://dramyjohnson.com/silent-retreats-2026/
