HOW WILL WE SPEND OUR TIME TOGETHER?
Everything we do is experiential learning, not information based mental models which means that we deliver information through ‘feeling it in your body’.
So our time together as a small group of people will include carefully choreographed days that includes both lightness and depth aimed at reconnecting the relationship between your head and your heart and the one between you and nature. This will include wild river dips, awe-inspired landscapes, nature connection practices, meditation and techniques of council and ceremony - ways to communicate from the heart and share stories around a roaring fire.
These re-connection practices will help you connect to yourself, and put you in good stead for the centre piece of this retreat which is the 24 Hour Solo nature experience
This Solo experience is an invitation to step into a sacred space alone in the wilderness.
It’s an invitation to reflect on your life, to honour your journey so far, and connect with the deeper purpose and potentials of your life.

THIS RETREAT IS FOR YOU IF
- You are willing to invest energy, time and money into making your visions happen.
- You are looking for the support of experienced community as you step forward onto your most authentic path.
- You aren’t afraid of deep conversations, truth telling and embracing vulnerability as a profound strength and source of power.
- You want to do this work as an individual and be witnessed and held as apart of a community based on true connection.
- There will be lightness and depth. There will be some deep edgy work where we will invite you to move out of your comfort zones to support deeper change.
OUR COMMITMENT TO ONGOING COMMUNITY, AFTER CARE AND THE “INTEGRATION PIECE”
The relationship between what surfaces on the course and how this meets everyday life back home, a process sometimes referred to as incorporation, will be carefully tended to. We are serious about the integration aspect of this work and as such this retreat includes:
- A one-to-one call (pre-retreat) with us
- 7-Days retreat workshop
- Two Group Zoom follow-up sessions within the first three months (led by us)
- A one-to-one mentoring session within three months of the programme’s end
- 3-weeks of follow up sharings with another group member
