PROJECT NATURECONNECT WORKSHOPS

Purpose:

Master thoughtful nature reconnecting activities that dissolve stress and free our spirit by satisfying our deepest natural loves, wants and relationships.

Savor the sensory adventure of a lifetime in nature's beauty.

Our trained guide helps you find and follow 53 attractive callings from a gentle natural area. Safely, these callings energize us to break through some freedom-limiting walls in our thinking and draw us into rewarding natural valleys of our mind. There we make tangible contact with nature's sensory essence inside and outside ourselves.

Discover how to further your connection to nature's dancing energies and balance.

Learn how to let the natural fun in life help you feel stronger about life. Then things naturally go better .
