Have you ever experienced what it feels like to be fully seen, heard, held, acknowledged and accompanied with what is alive in you without anybody interrupting? Your struggles, your challenges, your feelings and your pain? And nothing is done with it? That everything is ok the way it is? And you don’t get the message that there is something wrong with you and that you need solutions, advice and fixing from somebody who is wiser and more knowledgeable than you? And thus are given the chance to access your own inner Wisdom? And get in touch with your own inner guidance without needing any external authorities anymore? And the opportunity to connect with Nature’s and the group’s Wisdom, Intelligence and Intuition if you wish so?

Muster your Courage and venture on a Journey from the limits of the Mind to the Wisdom of the Heart!

What we will do and what will happen

The Just Pure Being – Nature Retreats are a Transformational Space where we enter a world most of us might not be familiar with. We will have long walks out in Nature at the most beautiful spots on our planet. Please see details in the program below! At the same time the invitation is to show interest and curiosity about the other participants’ struggles and challenges without wanting to fix, heal and repair. No Smart-Assery or Assholery with supposedly knowledgeable or wise comments, advice or solutions in order to put ourselves in the foreground and to compensate for feelings of inadequacy and shame so we can feel important, valuable and useful ;-). We can find out and check our assumptions about ourselves, others and the world toward us. We can enter the “Hot Seat” or “Circle of Wisdom” with a life topic to tell the story self-responsibly with focus on our emotions and how we feel about it. The group will be curious and interested in inquiring in order to get the whole picture and explore the core of our being. And again without trying to fix, repair or heal. No solutions, advice or comments unless the person in focus wishes so. An unique opportunity to reconnect with our own Inner Wisdom because we don’t get the message that there is something wrong with us and that we can’t do it on our own.

What we believe ourselves to be is a mental construct. An illusion. A thought-based identity. I hides behind believes, emotions, projections, coping mechanisms and survival strategies because we are not aware of all that or because we keep all of it secret and hidden. Therefore we don’t have the opportunity to find out that most of it is not true. When we have the courage to disclose what we have been hiding for all our lives a new door opens. Especially if it feels live-threatening and like as if we were being annihilated. Then the illusion loses its grip.

The Language of Connection explores what’s here and invites, welcomes and acknowledges everything that is hidden and unconscious and creates a fertile soil for Openness, Honesty and Vulnerability where everything is met with Curiosity, Humility and Compassion.

Transformation happens when we disclose and share what we usually want to keep secret and hide. When we feel seen, heard and held and our feelings and pain are acknowledged and validated a Shift happens. And we have the opportunity to find out that most of our beliefs and projections are not true which opens a new door.

Enjoy a unique and possibly live-changing opportunity to connect with Nature’s and the group’s Wisdom, Intelligence and Intuition.
