RAW/MOUNTAIN/RETREAT
THE MOUNTAINS ARE CALLING.
Climbing the mountains and forests in Wales in a small group with the intention to read the natural landscape and your emotional and mental terrain within.
HIKING & TANTRA
FACE YOUR INNER MOUNTAIN WARRIOR
Raw mountain retreat is an intimate 3 day journey into deep forests, open national parks, fresh springs, and wild embodiment.
After day 1 on the mountain, you can significantly clear your energy, empty your mind, gain confidence in your body, crack open your heart, and make new friends. It’s a retreat for the wild ones, those who follow the fall of adventure and put their soul first.
Blending practical hiking in raw nature with tantra and presence. No spiritual fluff - just the pure power of mountain energy holding space.
We’ll dive into aspects of feminine and masculine energy, explore archetypes, through actions and showing, not through too much explaining or talking.
This is why we bring our whole being to the mountains to feel the deep earth energy and allow transformation to occur actually on the path, not simply theorizing or talking about it.
