The Inward Wilderness Ideology

We are all born in relationship. We live in relationship. We heal in relationship. This relationship includes our world, especially the natural world.

Inward Wilderness is all about how our world, including the natural world, shapes and influences our sense of who we are. By exploring our relationships – to ourselves, to others and to the natural world – we can develop resources that help us create more resilient approaches to our life.

By paying attention to our thoughts and how our body participates in those patterns, we work to make changes to our thinking and our movements. Making changes to our body’s movements helps create new approaches to our life.

With the help of new movements and play, we explore our relationship to the world around us and create new ways of relating to the world. This new relationship provides support for relating to our lives in a fuller way.

At the heart of the Inward Wilderness ideology is the interplay of these makings — that is, relating to our world differently and the relationship that supports our new approaches to living. In relating differently, we become more fulfilled and more capable human beings.
