Who are we?

At Way of Nature we organise and host retreats and experiences to help us reconnect, get inspired and to take care of ourselves, each other and the world we are part of.

We do it because we think the modern world drives us apart, distracted and disenchanted; with consequences to our wellbeing, our communities and natural environment.

We bring lots of experience, loads of passion for what we do, and deep and wonderful teachings and guidance from John P. Milton, the founder of Way of Nature and visionary in nature-based practices.

These are exciting times as we launch a new phase of life and work as Way of Nature UK. Our vision is to grow a beautiful, organic, meaningful enterprise that reinvests into helping lives and natural balance.

Jini Reddy - Writer in Residence

After a decade of writing on experiential travel in sometimes wild, remote places for national press in the UK and abroad (as well as scribing on wellbeing and personal growth) it dawned on Jini that she feels most alive when spending mindful time in nature.
