Wilderness Survival Co-living - 2 Nights

REGISTER BY MONDAY, OCTOBER 19th

The natural world holds endless wisdom, and our relationship with it is the key to unlocking that knowledge.

Unlike a standard survival course, this is about more than just skills. It’s about rewiring your senses, rediscovering a lost way of being in the world, and stepping into a reciprocal relationship with the land, yourself, and community – all through direct experience in the body.

*NB: The above video is from the 4-day immersion. You are currently viewing the 2 day immersion. The program is very similar over a condensed timeline.

Testimonial

"When I met Josh at his deep nature connection course, I finally understood how smart is nature… I feel like nature chooses some incredible humans who have the ability to open the doors to step into that beautiful world that most people forget about or are detached from. Josh is one of these incredible mentors “hired” by the smart nature! Josh’s knowledge & skills let you experience a fantastic connection with nature but it’s his charisma, kindness and storytelling mastery that will let you make forever memories. I will always be grateful for Josh’s guidance and care for all of us in those woods. Every little step there with him was a major step in the direction of consciousness and elevation." — Pat Ambrosetti, Wilderness Program Participant
