Forest Wisdom retreat
15th May 2025 - 18th May 2025 May Hill, Gloucestershire, Gloucester
Specialist Workshop/Event
a bone deep love for nature.
It’s less easy to remember that the contours of your own body
represent the exact same nature. J,K Anderson
As humans, we were birthed from the forest… it is our birthplace and ancestral home. It is also a door way to a vast unknown, a place of mystery and intelligence. It is community of living beings we can listen to and be with.
We also have our body, another kind of community, a forest if you like, of unknown wisdom and connection.
On this long weekend retreat, we will open the doors to both of these worlds and learn to listen to the wisdom contained there.
What the retreat will involve:
- Learning the essentials of Focusing (for those that need it)
- Group discussion and exploration around the fire
- Forest Bathing and Nature connection Activities, games and walks immersing ourselves in nature
- Reflective solo time in the forest
- Being in community
Held near May Hill. Gloucestershire
Open to anyone – even if you are new to Focusing.
Costs
£ 275/£195 low waged/ Concessions and plans available
Practicalities
You will need your own camping kit (tent or shelter, sleeping mat and bag)
Two meals a day will be provided and cooked communally (breakfast and evening) so you will need to bring your own lunches. Full kit list will be shared 4 weeks before the event.
To keep our collective camp going, there will be daily tasks to share such as fire keeping and water collection.
Begins 5pm Thursday 15th May and ends 1pm Sunday 18th May 2025
