24 or 48 hours outdoors

The Wild

Reclaim your place in nature.

You feel something is missing. There’s little time for nature, and everyday life keeps pulling your attention elsewhere. Spend 24 or 48 hours outdoors with me, with time to breathe, find stillness and remember that you are part of the natural world.

The Wild with Aaron

You are part of this

A sunrise. A moment of stillness by the water. An evening watching the fire settle. These are moments when I find the noise in my head grows quieter and I remember what I’ve been missing. Time in nature, with enough room to notice it.

The Wild gives us a day and a night, or longer, to spend with that connection. We cook, talk and sleep outdoors. We meet the weather as it is, with the right preparation. There’s room for beauty and quiet, and for the challenges that can show us qualities in ourselves we rarely have to draw on.

I’ll guide breathwork, meditation, stillness and forest bathing practices. We’ll have conscious conversations, reflect on what’s happening in your life and work through questions you want to explore. You’ll have practices to take home and keep using. My hope is that you leave feeling clearer, calmer and more connected to your place in nature.

I believe the human spirit needs beauty, bread, solitude and silence. Food made together, the changing light, a quiet moment on your own. There’s a part of the soul that yearns for these simple things, and it’s easy to go a long time without giving them any room.

Earth, wind, water, fire, ether

Living with the elements

We’ll walk and move, practise breathwork and meditation, and share food and conversation. We’ll spend time forest bathing, paying attention to the woodland around us. Earth, wind, water, fire and ether connect these practices to the world we’re part of.

Earth

Take your boots off where the ground is suitable and feel the earth beneath your bare feet. Walk, move and spend time in direct contact with the land, remembering that you’re part of it.

Wind

Feel the wind on your skin. I’ll guide breathwork outdoors, with time to explore the practice in depth. Working with the breath and the element of air brings our attention to the body and its connection with the living world.

Water

We’ll take a cold dip in a safe location when conditions allow. There’s time to connect with the water, feel its coldness and be present with it. We’ll choose the place and approach together, with safety guiding the decision.

Fire

Where the site and weather allow, we’ll cook over the fire and share a meal. We’ll talk, listen and watch the flames, doing something human beings have done together for millennia. Preparing food and spending that time together gives us a way to experience belonging, whether it’s just the two of us or a small group.

Ether

Leave room for silence, meditation and stillness. Sit without reaching for your phone or filling every moment. Listen to what’s around you and give your own thoughts space to settle. There’s something here for the human spirit too.

Time by the water

Private or small group

24 or 48 hours in the wild

Choose private time with me or come as a small group. I’ll guide you throughout and provide the main meals in either format.

24 hours

A day and a night outdoors. We’ll have time to walk and practise, share an evening meal and wake up outside before we finish the next day.

48 hours

Two days and nights outdoors. We can use the second day for a longer walk or more time by the water and around camp, depending on the route and conditions.

Group size is capped at six to eight people, depending on the route and terrain.

Your overnight stay

Where we’ll go and sleep

We’ll agree on the location, route and overnight setup before you book. Tell me how much walking you’re comfortable with, what kit you have and if you have any access needs. We’ll talk through what’s possible.

We’ll usually plan to camp outdoors. Come prepared for wet and cold weather. If extreme weather makes the plan unsafe, we’ll change it. I’ll also make a call on activities like swimming and fire cooking based on conditions at the site.

You can take photographs and use your phone when needed. We’ll agree on moments to put it away, including time around the fire and during our practices. Alongside shared conversations, there’ll be room for solitude, silence and thinking for yourself without reaching for entertainment.

For me, there’s something healing in this. A chance to look beyond the ego and the everyday problems that can fill our whole field of view, and reconnect with the raw human being underneath. The breath, the water, the earth and the fire give us somewhere to begin.

Before you book

Food and kit

What I’ll provide

I’ll guide you while we’re out and provide the main meals. Let me know about any allergies or dietary needs when we plan the trip. If there’s something you’d love to cook over the fire, we can talk about that too.

What you’ll bring

Bring all your drinking water and snacks, along with your own walking and overnight kit.

Bring walking boots, waterproofs, warm layers and spare clothes. You’ll also need a rucksack and the overnight kit we’ve agreed on, including a tent or hammock if needed.

We’ll go through what you need for the route and where you’ll sleep before you book. I don’t supply equipment, so you’ll need the right kit to take part.

Talk to me about The Wild

Tell me what you feel is missing and what draws you to spending this time outdoors. We’ll discuss whether private time or a small group suits you, then talk through the duration, location, kit and cost before you decide.
