An unique opportunity in the Netherlands to surrender completely to nature !

This exceptional four-day retreat at a sacred place allows you to renew your connection to your inner and outer nature, in a way that might change your life.  You will be supported by the powers of solitude, place, ancient teachings and loving guidance and support. The teachings and  practices (e.g. sensing practices and qi cong) prepare you for a 48 hours of solo time alone in nature. During this solo you will be able to develop a fantastic companionship with nature (both your own nature and the surrounding nature). After your solo there will be time for sharing with your fellow Questers. And teachings about re-entry to your daily life while keeping thisDSCN8355_Smallunique experience alive.

The Nature Quest will allow you to:

  • Totally rejuvenate your connection with nature, yourself and other living beings.
  • Tap into an endless flow of creativity and potential.
  • Develop meaningful and sustainable leadership, on a personal and organisational level.
  • Deeply connect with yourself and other lovers of nature.
