StillPoint: Solitude and Attention 

A one-day outdoor experience that supports presence with nature-based practices.

Solitude is the therapist. Attention is the practice.

What is StillPoint?

StillPoint is an experiment in parallel presence. You’ll spend extended time alone in nature - walking, writing, reflecting - while being gently guided through prompts and optional practices designed to deepen you attention and self-awareness. You are not being “led” through an experience - you are being given space, structure and support to explore your own world.

How does it work?

StillPoint is a mostly outdoor, one day program. Throughout the day, facilitators will offer optional practices and prompts, alongside extended periods of solo time in nature. There will be small opportunities to gather in a group and share, but the focus is on quiet and individual experience.

This is a space for solitude - held with care.

StillPoint might be the right space for you if:

> Solitude feels challenging, but you’re curious what would happen if you stay with it.

> You want to explore your inner world and reflect but need more structure and depth

> You want to come back to daily life with greater clarity and steadiness

I greatly enjoyed having dedicated and focused time for self-connection and self-exploration while simultaneously grounded in a warm and welcoming community space.
