Provide sacred space for people
to connect to Nature, themselves and others
“In the forest, every footstep echoes love, every breath becomes prayer, and every
tree is a silent teacher. Come walk with me, and we’ll uncover all the secrets nature has to offer.”
Elizabeth Gilbert
What does the Tree of Life offer?
We offer sacred space for people to connect with nature, themselves and others.
At the Tree of Life, we embrace the ancient wisdom of Nature, use natural building techniques, promote self-sufficiency, incorporate sacred geometric designs, and promote a deep connection between our guests and the natural world. Our eco-lodge and retreat centre is a testament to our commitment to off-the-grid living, organic gardening, self-sufficiency and the support of spiritual practices.
In our modern western culture, we have lost a sense of sacredness, meaning our connectedness to the Mystery of life. Our materialistic culture no longer venerates Nature, and environmental destruction is global, reaching all the far-flung corners of the earth. Centuries of submission to religious and scientific dogmas that place humans above the natural world, have disconnected people from their deeper selves, and from wholeness.
The journey to healing ourselves and the planet is an inward journey. Using storytelling, vision quests, sweat lodges, yoga, meditation, enlightenment Intensives, contemplation in Nature and creativity, we help to support each other in the deeper journey of discovering who we really are. Rediscovering our wholeness can directly address the most salient issues of our times. In re-wilding ourselves, we come alive, and what the world needs is more people who have come alive.
Vision
We envision a world where humans live in conscious relationship with the Earth and with one another. The Tree of Life supports this vision through deep immersion in nature, spiritual practice, and creative expression.
Mission
The Tree Of Life provides a sacred space in Nature that nurtures growth, health, mindful living, creativity, and spiritual practice. Through workshops, retreats, gatherings, and hands-on learning experiences, we support individuals in reconnecting with themselves, with community, and with the natural world.
We are committed to living lightly on the land as an off-the-grid centre, featuring alternative building methods, regenerative design, and do-it-yourself projects that inspire self-reliance, ecological awareness, and creative expression.
The Tree Of Life is also a place of learning and exchange. We host experienced teachers and facilitators, creating opportunities for them to share their wisdom while empowering participants to deepen their own capacity, confidence, and life direction.
We continue to expand our presence locally, regionally, and internationally, building connections that carry this work into the wider world.
