Feedback - Yoga and Wilderness Immersions
Read what participants are saying about the Yoga Wilderness Immersions:
"For me the highlight was coming into balance in simple and vital ways. I felt so supported and encouraged (by the group and the surroundings) to discover this type of balance, that is so basic, but becomes so complicated in our busy, modern lives… I feel that in the short span of a week I was able to glimpse what life can be like if one is able to be in community, experience teachings, and incorporate them through deep and dedicated personal practice. Since coming back I have thought a lot about my intention to keep cultivating this in my life. The trip provided me a clarity and purpose that I feel was sorely lacking before."

"I was renewed and went deeper in my experience of how the wilderness could speak to me and provide me with powerful metaphors for how I live my life… I am attempting to bind myself more deeply to myself and my friends, going deeper into connection… I am laughing more deeply."
—J.W., 52, Educational Consultant
"This immersion was a powerful moment of discovery for me. By creating a supportive yet challenging environment, space was opened up that allowed for diving deep into myself, my asana, and into the experience of the wilderness. Most importantly, the insight of the group leaders and their guidance in how to translate what I found into more meaningful, supportable, and lasting changes in my life, took what could have been merely a great week in the woods, camping and doing yoga, and transformed it an experience whose impacts will last a long time."

"The most valuable thing I learned was that I can connect with nature and tap into the wise part of myself thru nature. Having spent all that time outside, in the wild, sleeping out, I feel more safe in the world in general….As a result of my experiences on this trip, I am different. I am coming from a different place inside myself, more connected spiritually, to something greater than myself. I've gotten clear about the work I need to do in the world."
