“If we are in rhythm with nature, we are in rhythm with ourselves.” —Micah Hobbes Frazier
In response to the complexity of the world we live which requires us to be resilient, flexible, innovative and adaptive we invite you to your own personal one day wilderness retreat- “Wild Minds”. A one day reboot, defrag in pristine wilderness to reawaken and rekindle the connection to and trust in your true self. Wild Mind offers space and time in nature for reflection and renewal.
We all know how we could be or should be but most of us fail to even achieve a small percentage of our potential. We are constant pulled in so many directions with our media selling us utopian fantasies resulting in poor self-image, frustration, anxiety and depression. The results are a slow erosion of our self-confidence and connection to the true self to create what we want to create and who we want to be in the world – a slow acceptance of things as they are rather than as we might wish them to be.
The lens through which we perceive the world impacts all our experiences and feelings we hold about the world. In other words, we co-create our reality depending upon the limited perspective or worldview we hold at the time. Our worldview influences all the decisions, beliefs and actions we take into the world. When we give ourselves the chance to step back and mindfully observe our worldview or the lens through which we experience the world a transformation takes place. The pain in our lives is often the gap between how we see the world (our worldview) and the reality out there. This often manifests itself as depression.
Perspective transformation and self-understanding can happen in an instant through deep observation. You just need remove yourself from the clutter and spend a period of mindful time in Nature. You don’t have to search for your own inspiration it’s all there in nature. We just need to give ourselves space to observe what is going on around us and begin to imagine other ways of being.
Wild Minds is a very personal day of awakening and coming back to ourselves with courage to overcome future challenges with wisdom and grace. Nature is your true host on the day whilst your guide Philip Jackson supports you to create your own individual dialogue with Nature.
Sitting on the edge of Sydney is the unrivalled pristine wilderness of the Blue Mountains providing some of the wildest lands for us to walk, heal and immerse ourselves in. Wild Mind immerses you in a secret spot of unrivalled beauty of great diversity, crossing spacious heath land to hidden rainforests of cascading waterfalls, expansive views and hidden canyons and caves. To retrieve that true sense of your wild free self, you just need to be present, willing, courageous and open and move with the rhythms of nature for a day.
When we walk and sit quietly in these wild places, eyes resting on real horizons, ears open to the conversation of birds, cascading waterfalls and the song of our hearts, we naturally remember our selves without effort. You will learn how to form a relationship with nature that reconnects you with a grounded sense of meaning, knowing and belonging. You will leave with the ability to determine what you want out of life and what it means to feel whole again, having embraced your imperfections as well as your strength. All part of being a courageous leader.
So, let the natural world do what it has always done- inspire re-energize and refresh. Your host Philip Jackson has been facilitating teams in natural spaces for over 15 years and continues to be inspired by the transformation that emerges from such practices
