Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has sparked further speculation about his future in the NFL, with rumors that he will leave Green Bay this offseason. The New York Jets are currently the favorites for where Rodgers will play next season, but Rodgers is still deciding what this offseason will bring. In an effort to make up his mind about his future, Rodgers decided to undertake a unique approach to self-discovery: a “retreat in the dark.”
hello darkness my old friend
During a recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show,” Aaron Rodgers announced his plans to spend four days and four nights in complete darkness in a small house. “It’s been on my radar for a few years and I feel like it would be awesome to do it regardless of where I leaned after this season,” Rodgers said. “It’s been on the calendar for months and months and months. He is arriving in a couple of weeks.”
The darkness retreat is designed to provide an opportunity for introspection and self-discovery. Rodgers has friends who have been through similar experiences and have had “profound experiences.”
“It’s a room, it’s a little house,” Rodgers said. “There is a two-way slot that they will leave you some food in, but it is isolation and darkness. No music, nothing.” The only source of food and communication will come from a two-way slot, and Rodgers will have to rely on himself for company. However, he assured: “You can wear adult diapers if you want, but there is actually a bathroom.”

“Just me, isolation,” Rodgers said, confirming that he did pay for this experience. Retirement has been on his calendar for several months and he looks forward to the opportunity for introspection.
“It stimulates DMT and can sometimes cause hallucinations,” Rodgers said. The quarterback believes that the isolation and darkness of retirement can provide a unique opportunity for self-examination.
Rodgers embarks on a journey to help him decide his future in the NFL. The “dark retreat” provides an opportunity for self-discovery through isolation and darkness. Whether this retirement leads to an epiphany for Rodgers or not, fans are eagerly awaiting his decision.
