Women's Wilderness Quests
Open to your heart
Take time to listen
Take time to be
In the heart of the Mother...

A Women's Wilderness Quest is an experience of intentional connection to self, earth, and community.
We go into wild nature to seek guidance for our lives. Often, the urge to do this comes at a time when change beckons and we feel a part of ourselves wanting to die and become something new. We retreat from the busyness of our lives, allow ourselves to slow down and encounter nature as teacher and healer. As we observe and interact with more than human nature -- trees, rocks, sun, sky -- we are reminded of our own true nature and place in the scheme of things.
A Quest often brings an awareness of oneness with nature. The resulting calm invites a sense of right relationship and clear direction for our lives. For some, it provokes a live-changing expansion of awareness that is transformational. Some of the issues women bring to Women's Wilderness Quests are: healing the earth, life transition issues, relationships, family, work, sexual orientation, creativity blocks, isolation, grief, depression, addiction, abuse, physical health, personal spiritual path. Quest days are spent in circles on the land, connecting with self and spirit, supported by songs, chants, meditation, ritual, and the power of nature and other women. The Vision Quest is an 8 or 9 day camping trip in a wilderness area in the Colorado Rockies. The Day Quest is a 15 hour ecopsychology workshop in the mountains near Boulder or other suitable location. |
