In 2013, Cameron Conaway was living in Thailand training in Muay Thai — a form of kickboxing that is the country's national sport — when he went on his first meditation retreat. What surfaced in the silence wasn't peace. It was a familiar itch he'd been managing his entire life through brutal physical training, rooted in childhood abuse and a belief he'd never consciously chosen to hold.
In this episode of 3-Minute Reframe, he shares what the retreat revealed: that not all bad habits are bad. Some of them got us through genuinely hard times. The question isn't whether to judge them — it's whether they're still serving the person you are right now.
