Sometimes you have to leave it all behind to find yourself.

 

Modern life can be tough. Our internal resources are often stretched, and stress and anxiety erode our self-belief, resilience and happiness. Although we understand the principles of balance, for a lot of the time it feels like a far out of reach dream. If this sounds familiar, perhaps you should consider this retreat. 

Mindfulness is the ability to be fully aware, without judgement, in present-moment awareness, whilst being neither overly reactive nor overwhelmed, with what we are doing. When we integrate mindfulness into our lives, it becomes a way of Being in the world that is calmer, more focused and more connected. 

 

Now imagine exploring this ancient, life changing practice against the backdrop of the magnificent central Greater Kruger landscape. We guarantee you will return home feeling a sense of peace, re-energized, re-focused and equipped with powerful tools to face your busy routine.

 

What is it?

 

A five-day, guided hiking safari, that has been designed as an immersive, catalytic and transformative journey. A deeply experienced team will ensure that the program gives you exactly the right blend of adventure, physical, spiritual and mental stimulation. To ensure that we are able to serve you, group sizes are limited to a maximum of 9.

 

These retreats mindfulness practices are led by the widely respected teachers Mark Joseph [mindfulness practitioner and teacher, partner at Mindful Revolution]  or Leanne Glanville [mindfulness, yoga & breathwork teacher, certified counsellor, yoga studio owner]. On specific retreats, Lutz Otto [wilderness guide, certified integrative coach, founding director of Spirited Adventures], joins them as co-facilitator.

For private groups bookings, we are able to customize this retreat to include advanced mindfulness and meditation practices, yoga, spiritual explorations, or as women's, or men's only retreats. 

What will my days be like?

 

Each day will start early. Walking through the African bush is easily the most exciting and intimate way to see nature on its own terms. We will hike to a new campsite in the coolness of morning, and you will spend one of the nights sleeping under the magnificent canopy of the southern stars. 

 

Mindfulness practices will include awakening awareness, coping with anxiety and stress, altering perceptions, balancing body and mind, and aversion and attachment. Time is built into the program for breathwork, check-in’s, facilitated group sessions, silence and contemplation. Shared laughter, shared tears, beautiful sunrises, incredible landscapes, and a chance to meet like-minded are part of shared experience.

 

How will it change me?

 

The psychological, physiological and spiritual benefits of being in nature have been widely studied and are many: a lessening of anxiety, depression and stress; a ‘recharging’ of batteries depleted by busy lives; a sense of joy, wonder and contentment.

 

The benefits of Mindfulness have been known and studied for thousands of years; a few of these include greater self-acceptance, improved focus and attention, reduced stress and anxiety, improved life-satisfaction, improved relationships, greater empathy and awareness, improved health and longevity. 

The professional facilitation team, are passionate about what they do and the space they create for their clients. You can expect to leave having further developed your mindfulness practice, a sense of indelible calm, a number of psychological wellbeing practices to navigate life more harmoniously, and hopefully a new way of being in the world.

"Wild places have an incredible power to inspire, influence and help shape who we continue to become. Much like the metaphor of the “the mirror and a glass”, their energy allows us to reflect on the memory of our journey and the vision of where we want to go, and why" Lutz Otto
