Rewild. Reconnect
29 November - 1 December, Fleringen
We are alive in a moment that matters. How we show up in these times of crises and uncertainty counts.

In order to create an impact on our outer world, we need to tend to our inner world. To know who and how to be, we invite you to slow down and reconnect, to listen to yourself and to the living world.

Join us for a weekend on the land where we will practice building meaningful relationships with ourselves, each other and the more-than-human world around us.

Through deep solo time, creative outdoor play, ritual and community you will have a chance to re-member yourself:
to reconnect as a member of this magical world!
The times are urgent,
let us slow down

Your guides
  • Anneke van Woerden
    Anneke is a creative facilitator and nature-connection guide. She believes in the power and importance of communing in circle, facilitating modern day rites-of-passages to mark our lives and living with the seasons. She had her first overnight solo in 'the wild' (read, her own backyard) when she was 5 years old. She rekindled her love for our living world during a 2 year long course on outdoor education leadership in the UK.
    In nature solo work, Anneke has trained with Chris Salisbury, Rupert Marques and Mike Bodkin.
  • Emma Proud
    Emma creates experiences for groups and organisations to 'act into a new way of thinking/being'. Emma is a bit of a magpie, with diverse interests that inform her life and work. She draws on systems thinking, creativity, innovation, neuroscience, embodiment and anthropology to design and facilitate change processes. She believes that by experimenting and practicing new ways of being together, we can increase our care, commitment, confidence and capacity to make our beautiful world better.
The land

You'll be welcomed on a beautiful estate in Fleringen, Overijssel. Spend time in the generations old woods, feeling the magic of the ley line they sit on. Take an invigorating dip in the water around the house (for the brave!). Nourish yourself with simple vegetarian food and warm yourself by the fire with stories and songs.

You'll receive more details on the location once you've signed up.

Questions?
What is a nature solo exactly?
On your nature solo, you will head to the land on Saturday early afternoon and return with the dark. Your time in the wild is a retreat from consumption: there's nothing to read or do, nothing to eat. It's a beautiful time to disconnect from normal life and re-member: reconnect to your wild self as a member of this magical world.
When out on the land, the living world serves as a mirror to reflect whatever is alive for us at that moment. The nature solo is also a moment of transition to mark, celebrate, honour, or create the start of moving from one life phase to another.
While you will spend your time alone we will be there as your guides. The solo time will be shaped and held with carefully designed process and ritual.
Where/how do I sleep?
We will host you in the summer house of Emma's family. This is basic and cosy accommodation. Before the weekend starts, you will receive a full kit-list with everything you need.
What do I do if I have more questions?
In case of any doubts or questions, please don't hesitate to chat with one of the guides. Contact us here.
