Nature-based Transformation

Most youth centres and adventure camps offer a safe environment for youth to have fun through indoor and outdoor recreational activities, which are known as “Outdoor Recreation”. Some of these facilities have designed part of their activities to include educational content, as an opportunity for schools to link subjects like history or sciences to their activities, and that is effectively what is called “Outdoor Education”.

Wild and Wise Tribe goes beyond recreational and educational outcomes by focusing on the wholesome development of the learner, connecting to nature by following a spiritually grounded approach, with plenty of moments to question and receive feedback on their journey to awareness and soul connection. We call that journey “Outdoor Transformation” or most specifically, “Nature-Based Transformation”.

What does nature-based therapy look like?

The conscious integration of the natural environment into the therapeutic process can take numerous forms. In most therapy processes, there is a specific objective or intention for the work. This will determine which behaviours and initiatives are supported.

It may look like this:

Mindfulness practises in the outdoors

Experiencing our senses or our own free flow of attention in nature

Taking up natural obstacles such as rock climbing, canoeing, or ascending a mountain peak

Learning natural survival skills in order to survive outdoors for several days or weeks, either alone or in a group

To improve self-care, learn about edible or medicinal plants

Having dialogues with the natural world (plants, animals, rocks, water, etc)

Nature provides metaphors for life, health, death, resilience, and other topics

Creating and carrying out a personalised ceremony or ritual outdoors

Being in contact with the elements and the unpredictability of the weather

Making art and crafts in the natural environment

Unplugging from technology and our daily routines and slowing down to earth time

Having the leisure and space to roam our ideas and behave spontaneously in regard to the natural environment

Wandering aimlessly and allowing ourselves to be led by curiosity

Consciously participating in relationships with animals and connecting to our primal ancestry
