The wild twin doesn’t fit neatly into our lives. It’s the unruined part of ourselves that refuses to be tamed by societal expectations. To court the wild twin is to step into mystery, into the part of life that cannot be controlled or fully understood.

– Martin Shaw

Program Description

Join us for a day walk in wild nature that is shaped and inspired by Martin Shaw’s book, Courting The Wild Twin.

Entering into wilderness, we have an opportunity to reconnect with a vital part of ourselves that has not been tamed by society, has not been conditioned to “be good”. Inside each of us is a wild twin, calling to us to remember what we have disowned for the sake of belonging. On this day walk, we invite you to explore your authenticity and sense of aliveness, away from the constraints of the civilized world. This will be an opportunity to reflect on the untamed parts of yourself that you might have forgotten, exiled or left behind. We will be relating with the land as a storyteller and teacher, who might help you locate your wild twin, inspiring you to court it back home to your heart with authenticity and wholeness.

Our day together will include a couple of hours in the morning in council, followed by a few hours of solo time on the land with an intention—sacred time and space to embrace stillness and look deeply into the mirror of nature. When you return, we will come together for story sharing and integration. Your guides, Cynthia and Reet, will mirror your story back to reflect the gifts of your time out on the land with your wild twin.

We acknowledge that the land upon which we offer this program is the unceded ancestral homeland of the Mishewal-Wappo people, who have continuously lived there for thousands of years. Their endurance and wisdom inspire us to continue our efforts to create an inclusive, life-sustaining society that is in balance with Mother Earth.

“To court the Wild Twin is to court the soul’s rebellion, a holy act of remembering what the world has forgotten.” – Martin Shaw
