Men's Wilderness Immersion // Boulder, Colorado // July 12th-16th
An opportunity to personally and collectively engage with the timeless reciprocity between humans and nature. It naturally brings forth relationships that have never been seen before within the terrain of the soul and of the natural world. Marked by three distinct phases, the innate intelligence of the vision quest brings you through a cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
Experience The 3 Stages
Severance
Severance is a critical stage of the Wild Rites ceremony in which we leave behind the world that is familiar. This takes place literally and metaphorically. Going from one life stage to another, requires us to leave behind that which we thought we knew so we can make room for what is to come. This is also a time to root ourselves into the rhythms of nature and from there, attune ourselves to our greater intention of the experience.
Threshold
Threshold marks the time in ritual when we establish our threads of connection to the wild, and enter into the terrain of possibility, transformation, and reflection. Threshold is the space where unseen relationships are made visible, whether it be within our own psyche, or in the world of nature. This requires conscious experimentation with the unknown and one’s intention, while simultaneously giving up normal routines and fasting from food.
Incorporation
Another way to frame incorporation is the return. Incorporation is when we bring the experiences during threshold into expression - into everyday life. Incorporation often takes a year to fully integrate one’s experiences. This is normal, and it is at this stage that it is important to remember the ‘visions’ received are always changing, and following the vision as a journey is critical.
