Connect with the Earth & Discover Yourself: An Eco Somatic Nature Immersion

Led by Erin Carper, embrace mindfulness and movement practices along with guided visualizations. All are welcome regardless of whether you are new to retreats, camping, meditation, etc. Our campsite is positioned on a hill, with views of rolling hills, open sky, and the lovely Black Mountain. We’ll orient ourselves by spending time hiking in the wild areas around the camp. Learn to observe nature through the eyes of a Naturalist! At the end of this retreat, you will have practices to bring home with you to connect with the environment you live in. This retreat is also dana (AKA donation) based so our fees are only set to cover the cost of vegetarian meals and lodging (camping and BYOTent).

Erin is a Eco Somatic & Rites of Passage Guide. In 2019, she completed the Somatic Ecopsychology and Wilderness Quest Apprentice Program at the TerraSoma Ecopsychology Training Institute. She is a certified Wilderness First Responder and a certified California Naturalist. She also continues to study Earth based ceremonial practices, holistic coaching, Hakomi, Internal Family Systems, and other mindfulness-centered somatic therapeutic skills.

Off-Grid Retreats is a nonprofit headquartered in San Francisco with the mission of connecting people to nature through a contemplative lens. We support certified teachers to bring their offerings outside so more people can access guided mindfulness / meditation / movement / etc in nature. We offer scholarships and providing sliding scale tickets to our retreats. We also coordinate a nature practice fellowship, rentals and overnights for other nonprofits.
