Eternal Origins Earth & Sea Retreat

Where the mountains meet the sea

Imagine slowing down on an island where the mountains meet the sea. That was the invitation, and in April 2026 a small circle answered it.

Madeira is volcanic, green and steep. The land there does something to you before anyone says a word. We let it.

This is how we described it beforehand: a 7-night retreat experience where you can disappear into the horizon while feeling the essence of eternal spring well up inside you in each moment. A retreat for sunrise chasers and sunset seekers. For feeling the raw elemental energy that comes from long past volcanic origins.

The New Human hosted the retreat page.

What the week held

Kevin and I guided the circle through daily practices, elemental ceremonies, quantum healing, and long unhurried time to connect with each other. Seven nights is long enough to drop the pace you arrived with. It is long enough to remember something.

Activation and release come from moments full of joy, bliss and wonder, as well as from moments seeped in shadow, pain and confusion. We had it all in Madeira.

We called it elemental remembrance. Coming back to the elements is coming back to yourself. I know that can sound abstract. On the island it was not.

Kevin and Heidi

I held this retreat with Dr. Kevin Preston, who runs The New Human. We have shared a stage at his events, and Madeira was our first week-long circle together, far from home. The depth of how attuned we are to each other let something happen that week that I had not seen before.

Heidi Jordan came too, and fed us. Her cooking and her way of holding a space are the same gift. If you have been to a Wild & Wise gathering, you have tasted it.

What it was

Seven nights. Up to 12 people. Ceremony, connection and a return to your own essence. Nature did the nourishing. Community did the inspiring. The rest unfolded.

If you were there, thank you. If you are feeling the pull toward the next one, the dates below are real, and my community hears first.
