Get WiLD is catered to leaders and social entrepreneurs around the world. It is a one week guided training with a 3-day contemporary nature quest solo at its core for up to 20 participants. The quest will take place in July in the remote and pristine mountains of Vålådalen Nature Reserve, Northern Sweden. The program is modeled on the Sacred Passage training developed by John P. Milton, coach to management gurus like Peter Senge and Otto Scharmer. This years Get WiLD will be an advanced training emphasising meditation practices and group work among the participants to gain deeper insights into the unfolding process of embodying true leadership. For those who wish to deepen the experience even more, tailored one-to-one sessions with the hosts are available at an added cost before and after the retreat.
THE TRAINING The training consists of a 3-day solo in nature creating a setting for you to establish a deeper sense of interconnectedness and a deeper connection to the natural world. Before and after the solo you will be engaged in group processes with your co-participants, camp-fire dialogs and meditation practices to highten your experience. Solo retreats into wild nature have been used by indigenous peoples around the world during times of transition.They involve being alone in nature, reconnecting to one’s spiritual core and developing clarity about one’s life purpose. Get WiLD, which is led by experienced guides, is a contemporary version of this ancient native tradition. Your safety is of utmost importance. The program will ensure that the solo experience takes place in a safe environment. The hosts and guides will help you prepare for, and return from your solo in ways that helps you integrate your inner and outer experiences. The depth of this experience is up to you. The program will enhance your ability to handle the challenges that life may offer. As Einstein said: “Problems cannot be solved from the same level of thinking that created them”. The new acquired clarity and connection from this experience is an invaluable gift for life.
