passage, and community building. Benefit from being immersed and
enriched by an established multigenerational nature connection
community on beautiful Salt Spring Island.. The Wisdom of the Earth
Immersion is designed according to a time-tested deep nature
connection mentoring model, developed by Jon Young and the 8 Shields
Institute, a global movement in nature connection and cultural repair,
and supported by the latest nature connection research. Our mentoring
at Wisdom of the Earth is influenced by over 20 years of
multi-generational village building experience in our local community.
We integrate the foundation of ancestral wisdom with the inspiration
of cutting-edge contemporary insights, to evoke and support the
expression of each participant’s unique gifts. Wisdom of the Earth
Immersion runs three days per week, from Sept 2019 till June 2020,
with a break from mid-Dec through January, and a 2 week spring break
in late March. The core program days are Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday,
9am to 3:30pm. Additional session days, field trips, and exciting
week-long expeditions to stunning wild locations round out the
program. To make it easier for parents to attend, the program timeline
is compatible with the WOLF Kids schedule where possible, though there
are additional days. Activate your full human potential to a place of
vision. Push your edges to become fully alive! WHO IS THIS FOR? The
global Nature Connection movement is expanding rapidly, as people
become more and more aware of the impact of “nature deficit
disorder” on youth and adults alike. Well-trained nature connection
mentors, village builders, and community leaders are in high demand,
and can bring these skills to benefit many areas of society. Designed
as a one-year stand-alone program or a 2 or 3 year option for even
more depth and training.
