The Power of a Medicine Walk: let go of the need for control, and be open to how life reveals itself to you

We're holding a few Medicine Walks this year. Our guide Rebecca Joy Card explains what a Medicine Walk is all about:

A Medicine Walk is a way of being with the land and yourself in a receptive, open and imaginal way.

It's an opportunity to leave "your familiar world to wander, opening to new insights and gifts through direct and immediate contact with the wildness of the world, and returning to share this gift for the benefit of one’s People and one’s Place." (John Davis, School of Lost Borders).


Essentially, this exercise has its roots in one of the oldest spiritual practices – of nature and human in a deep(er) conversation. 

It is done consciously, in ceremony, making it different to just 'going for walk'. There is intention. There may be a question to walk with, a question that may be asked to the land, to the other-than-human-world. 

What to expect? The unexpected! It is important to be open to the wonder and magic of how life wants to reveal itself to you. You may think you know how your life should be, but the natural world has its own way of mirroring back to you the 'medicine' you may really need, or another way of looking at things.

I have known people to go out with questions about how to proceed with their career when it feels stuck and uninspiring, and come back brimming with vitality, full of inspiration.
