Join the quest!

8-10 October 2017Ekskäret

Do you want to set yourself out from the crowd? Do you want to a take a step further - physically and mentally- to see what is hidden? 

Nature Quest is a guided wilderness experience built around a solitary time in nature called the Solo. It’s a contemporary version of the ancient ritual of going into nature alone for contemplation, renewal and realignment. Retreating alone into the wilderness and sharing your experience afterwards with other participants provides a powerful opportunity to step back and reflect both on your life and your relationship with nature.

Before and after the Solo you will engage in group processes with your co-participants, campfire dialogues and awareness practices to deepen your experience. The practices aim to cultivate and refine the perceptions and senses, and involve body scanning, meditations and wilderness skills.  This experience is sure to push you out of your comfort zone and take you deeper than the normal meditation or yoga class. The quest is suitable for both individual and group development. 

In this "taste" of Nature Quest you will be going into the Stockholm archipelago where you will spend a full 24-hours out in the Äpplarö nature reserve. The second day and evening will be spent on the island Ekskäret, coming together and sharing your experience with the other participants. This will help you to integrate the experience in daily life and to harvest the different perspectives between you and others, and you and nature. 


What are you waiting for?


Note: The quest will be held in either Swedish or English, depending on the language of the participants.

Last day to sign up is Friday, 29 September
