The vision fast is a cross-cultural ceremony that brings guidance and healing through solo time in wild nature. This journey can be seen as having two functions: a rite of passage to mark an important transition in your life; and a rite of renewal to renew or strengthen your connection to yourself, to the earth, and to the sacred dimension in your life.

The basic structure of this wilderness retreat draws on elements of rites of passage and renewal that stretch back to the beginnings of human consciousness: removing ourselves from our familiar worlds and going into the wilderness; using ceremony to deepen awareness and open our hearts; having time together in close community; having time alone; fasting; and returning with greater clarity and specific tasks.

Noon Friday to 5:00 pm Monday.
Overnight camping permitted before and after.

Cost: $395.00—includes camping accommodations, meals, and guide fees.
