Call of the Wild Soul
Focusing on your Soul life as a gift to yourself


What IS calling you?

What brought you here today? Does it feel like you need a big change of direction? Have you reached the crossroads? Are you no longer prepared to carry on acting in the ways that have brought you this far but no longer feel like they’re really you? Do you long for a different way of being in the world?

If you are ready to be more truly yourself. If you want to grow a greater sense of belonging and self-worth, ready to find your life’s purpose and direction, then perhaps Call of the Wild Soul is the place for you to start your journey into deep soul.

What is Call of the Wild Soul?

Call of the Wild Soul is an invitation to set out on an adventure to find and embody your true self. Using ceremony, the deep group work of council, fasting and profound encounters with wild nature, we will guide you on that journey. Along the way you’ll gain insight. Cracks will start to appear through which you will see the light of your soul, your true self shining clearly.

Call of the Wild Soul - Details

What will we cover?

To spend time focusing on your Soul life is a great gift to yourself. This intensive will deeply immerse you in soul through both ancient and timeless processes. We will:

  • Explore the four directions, seasons and elements as a mirror to your soulful nature.

  • Develop an I-Thou deep relationship to inner and outer Nature.

  • Look deeply into the mirror of Nature to see your Wild Soul.

  • Open a sacred dialogue with Nature as your living Guide.

  • Take steps to become fully human as you learn to honour all aspects and phases of your Self.

  • Unlock stuck facets of your Wholeness.

  • Participate in Council and Ceremony - ways to communicate from the heart in sacred space.

  • Learn practices that will enable you to turn to Nature again and again to receive answers to the bigger questions in your life.

We will use fasting to support a liminal ‘betwixt and between’ state between break-fast and dinner daily. Fasting heightens the senses and helps us cross the threshold from the concrete to abstract mind. When we walk on the land hungry it reminds us of something timeless within us, the only food are the sights, sounds and smells of Nature. This helps to look and listen deeply to Nature's messages as She/ He mirrors back our Truth. Daily fasting is recommended, yet optional.

Who is this intensive for?

If you are seeking ways to deepen your self understanding, to define your sense of purpose and set a new vision for your life, the Call of the Wild Soul will be a powerful place for you to start your journey.
