Nature can be a powerful vehicle for personal development, healing and growth. I design and lead bespoke Therapeutic Wilderness Journeys for individuals or groups both on the West Coast of Scotland the Pyrenees and in the Himalayas. Combining my therapeutic and coaching skills with the healing power of nature and journeys I have designed 3-wilderness journeys which can be a deeply nurturing and transformative experiences and which can help restore inner balance, recharge your batteries and enable you to develop a perspective and find direction all within the context of wild journeys in wild places.
Travelling together on a bespoke one-to-one journey or in a group of 12 we take time out to reflect, to understand and to plan ahead. These journeys usually range from 10-days to 3-weeks.
A rite of passage is defined as a ritual or experience that marks a major milestone or change in a person’s life. The importance of them is to recognise and celebrate the transition and change in life circumstances that is taking place.
The Himalayan Rites of Passage is a three-week journey designed to help participants to leave the thinking of childhood behind and through some hardship and reflection, to adopt the sense of responsibility that being a functioning independent adult requires. The modern idea of a Gap year spent partying and travelling the world, does little to induct young people into the ranks of mature adulthood.
These journeys are unique 16 or 21-day high level adventures of the body and mind starting from Katmandu with the option of a Lower trek based in the Annapurna region or a more challenging Higher trek to the border of Tibet in Upper Mustang and Lo-Mantang. Journeying as part of a small group you will gain new insights and a renewed sense of direction and purpose in life, in one of the most stimulating landscapes and cultures in the world.
Enabling you to take a break from the stresses and challenges of modern-day life, this journey is designed to 'recharge your batteries' on a deeper level. Each journey is deliberately designed to give you the space and time to take stock, reflect and renew in the company of like-minded people all on the ‘Road Less Travelled’.
These journeys are designed around your personal/individual needs and wants. They can take place in the Himalayas, Pyrenees or on the West Coast of Scotland. Working together in advance of your journey we will carefully design and prepare you for this adventure of giving you a sense of where you are today and where you want to be in the future.
