In a system built for distraction, connection with nature is an
act of rebellion.

Nature-based retreats for mid-career professionals whose nervous systems have been running on fumes for too long.

Return to the wild. Return to yourself.

Mindfulness In Nature

Nature-based mindfulness practices, rooted in the Awake in the Wild and Insight Meditation traditions, help you slow down enough to see clearly. With nature, Nicholas Whitaker and Bex Burton as your guides, you learn to arrive fully in the present and meet what's actually here with compassion, courage, and curiosity. We slow down long enough for the things underneath to surface.

Some people call this re-wilding. We call it returning home.

Let Nature Be Your Guide

The natural world runs on rhythms that predate every productivity framework and optimization routine you've been trained in.

These retreats draw on contemplative practice, ecology, and practical awareness training to help you reconnect with yourself, with others, and the world around you.

From that place of connection comes agency to change, and the answers you need to apply these techniques in your day to day life.

Somatic Practices To Calm Your Nerves

Easy to access movement practices facilitated by Bex Burton brings a bit of Joyful Rebellion to the Wild Rebellion combined with time in nature, recalibrate your capacity - and reconnect you with yourself and the world around you.

When your Energy, Attention, and Time have been running on extraction mode, your nervous system needs space to reset, so you can return to your life with more clarity and less reactivity.

Stillness and reflection

to ground you.

Structured time in the natural world to reconnect with what matters most. Through guided reflection practices, you begin to see what constant motion has been obscuring, and what needs to shift before you return.

This is where insight becomes intention, and intention becomes practice.

The frameworks that run through everything we offer come into the wild with us. See the approach behind the work →

RETREAT FORMATS

Mini-Retreats

Quarter Day, Half-day and full-day experiences for those who need restoration but can't step away for extended periods. These are shorter sessions that break the cycle of constant doing, and offer a meaningful reset inside the rhythms of your existing life.

Immersions

Multi-day retreats that allow for genuine nervous system restoration, sustained reflection, and a depth of reconnection that only time can produce.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

If this is the kind of thing, you think you might need in your life, then it's DEFINITELY the thing you need in your life. I was a bit unsure at first, but decided to lean in. I'm so glad I did. I feel rejuvenated, and feel like my sense of awe has been restored, after having been lost in the devastation that there's a lot of craziness happening in the world. Feeling very grateful to the Rebellion Collective for this experience.

Curated experiences for leadership teams and organizations ready to do something real with their time together. Designed around your group's actual needs, combining nature-based practices with facilitated dialogue to build the kind of trust and clarity that makes the work stick.

I attended a half-day retreat with Nick recently. The experience renewed and restored my inner peace and reconnected me with nature. I left the four-hour event feeling like I had been in the wilderness for weeks. I highly recommend Nick's retreats if you want to connect again with the presence of nature and your own essence.
