Enlightened Damar Hamlin Proves Aaron Rodgers Wrong by Placing Philanthropy Over Darkness Retreat

Damar Hamlin has been on a path of Philanthropy ever since he became a Pro Baller. Ever since joining the NFL, Hamlin has been involved in charity and giving back to his community. He set up the Chasing M’s Foundation when he was in college, back in 2020, and has seen success in raising funds. Despite his seemingly young age, Hamlin has attained what looks to be mental peace. And his efforts to attain it have been quite different than the legendary QB, Aaron Rodgers.

Aaron Rodgers sprung into the news earlier this year when he announced he was going to enter a darkness retreat. The concept of darkness retreat is to avoid light for a few days while performing yoga to go along with it. Rodgers’ intention to enter into a dark retreat was to attain peace after a tumultuous season and offseason behind and in front of him respectively. But Hamlin showed his fans and others that one can attain peace and happiness in more ways than one.

Damar Hamlin holds event with American heart

Hamlin has been active in his charitable activities for more than a couple of years. One of his first initiatives was to start a toy drive when he set up the foundation, back in 2020. Recently, Damar has teamed up with the American Heart Association as he continues his pursuit of aligning with his purpose.

In an Instagram post on Damar Hamlin’s handle, the Bills safety shared his latest development on the charitable front. The post captioned his emotions perfectly upon his successful drive in partner with American Heart and Apple. The post said, “Been Feeling Like I’m Aligned With My Purpose Lately.. Focused On Being A Good Soul In The World & Executing Everything I Touch At A High Level.”

His work has been a direct response to the catastrophe he faced earlier this year, which has seen him focus on the Chasing M’s. While this ably fulfills Hamlin’s purpose, others may not see it the same way. Rodgers is one of the most contrasting images to Hamlin and his efforts to seek out a sense of peace and purpose.

Aaron Rodgers went to Oregon earlier this year

Before sharing his desire to move to the New York Jets, he expressed his intention to go into a darkness retreat. The darkness retreat was one that saw him head to the Oregon wilderness. One which, helped him immensely in performing a reset.

In an article published on the daily mail, Rodgers shares details of his darkness retreat. He goes on to say, “It was a great reset for me, for my body and my mind.” The former Packers QB further adds, “Maybe a little bit longer than I needed. I feel like by the time I got to the fourth day, I was like, Alright, I’m ready to come out.” Rodgers took his chance to take a break from the world with his trip to Oregon.

Damar Hamlin has earned many fans after recovering from the cardiac arrest he endured earlier this year. And ever since has made efforts to give back to the people who have helped him in his efforts and his community. Rodgers found a different path to Hamlin, who will feel energized and ready once the new season starts.
