When the Wild Woman roamed free in the forest without fear… bold and in her power, she was at peace in her mind and with the outer world. Her sacred rituals kept her centered, and she felt her instinctive relation with nature. Modern times lead us away from our intuitive path into a precisely fabricated game that can never be won.
Walking in the woods, having everything you need to make a comfortable, safe place to rest, a nourishing meal, and a sacred fire were once the custom of everyday life. Spending our nights in the forest… feeling calm and safe, and walking upon the earth during the day, guides us to remember how to live as if each moment is a sacred ceremony. Learning to be fearless, confident, and self-reliant in the enchanted forest is a path to pure self-empowerment… and opens doors you never knew stood before.
Along with the skills, techniques, and ordinary necessities of backpacking as the “outdoor sport” it has come to be known, Backpacking as a Sacred Practice is a mindset that stays with us after we return to the trailhead and head home.
Being present and entirely tuned into Mother Nature is the highest form of Self-Care. We walk into the woods as the often overstressed, disconnected humans we have been led to become and walk out as the fierce Goddess who remembers her power and her innate connection to All That Is.
Is your inner Wild Woman calling for liberation?
