MIND
Rituals/Simplicity
Nature allows our minds to naturally enter into a state of mindfulness in the present moment. It restores a space for healing of the fast paced and demanding mental energy of our modern world. Slowing things down and allowing for mental restorative sounds and space inherent in any experience in nature removed from overstimulation of our urban centers allows us to rejuvenate our minds.
Rituals
On our retreats you will experience rituals built into every day on the trail. Rituals intentionally happen for a specific time and at a regular frequency. For example the ritual of gratitude, experienced on a daily basis or the ritual of exploration and adventure woven into our experience in nature.. Be a part of daily rituals that bring a sense of wonder, gratitude , exploration and adventure back into your life. Some of the rituals we practice on our retreats are: Sunrise and Sunset Hike , Gratitude, Awareness and Mindfulness, Photography.
Simplicity
Well planned trips immersed in nature allow our minds to relax in a naturally meditative state and induce gratitude for the simple pleasures of life so often missed in our fast paced world. We unplug from technology, create moments in time for reflection, make camp, prepare food, go on simple journeys of discovery and action.
The simplicity of being in nature on a planned excursion creates moments in time you capture to just be and experience the natural world.
These moments have the power to bring about profound changes in your connection to the natural world. On our retreats you will experience a restorative and rejuvenating experience for the mind. Restores an inner balance and sense of connection to pleasures life brings.
BODY
Resilience/Stamina

This allows our team to combine physical challenge with basic outdoor skills that enhance your experience in nature , giving you a sense of accomplishment and fulfillment through these experiences. We also return to simple food combinations of less than five ingredients with organic, unprocessed ingredients straight from the farm to our retreats.
Resilience
