Typical feedback on
the Vision Quests:
_______________________________________________________________
"Now
that I am back in my day-to-day life, I wanted to contact you one
last time to say a big thank you for all the work, creativity and
vision that you put into making the [vision quest] such an extra-ordinary
experience."
"[It] was a deeply moving, inspiring and transformational experience
that I will always treasure. In the few days I was on the Quest, I
found something within myself that I hadn't realized I possessed and
I am beginning to look at myself and my life with fresh eyes as a
result.
Thank you".

"I
feel I now understand to some extent on how deep a level ecotherapy
operates. I have taken something with me that I may need to follow
up in the future but for now it is sitting with me, along with some
fantastic memories of great company, good food and a beautiful environment".
_______________________________________________________________
Four years on I still
benefit from having done the quest. Life is slower and more peaceful.
I am confident that I can survive days when nothing is planned and
am far happier and comfortable in my own company. I would recommend
a vision quest to anyone.

"Thank
you once again for your heartfelt care and encouragement".
_______________________________________________________________
“I
just wanted to thank you for my amazing time…The universe showed
up for me, and somehow now I have got to show up …I want you
to know how pivotal you have been in this for me".
_______________________________________________________________
“I would like
to thank you for your caring support and wisdom on the retreat ...
I expected nothing and got so much .... For me it was a great experience”.
_______________________________________________________________
“Thank
you so much for facilitating such an extraordinary experience for
me at the Vision Quest. The repercussions are still being felt. Last
week alone I had about 20 dreams!! They show how I am revisiting old
issues from a different perspective which feels quite cleansing and
refreshing”.

"The retreat was
an amazing experience, I can't thank you enough for creating such
a safe space... [It] was just what I needed".

Typical
praise for the Spirit of Africa Trail:
_______________________________________________________________
The
trail "was more of an experience than I had dared hope for...For
me, truly priceless...[Ecotherapy Institute] deserves the highest
praise for providing such an extraordinarily profound experience for
me".
_______________________________________________________________
The
trail is a "catalyst for growth in an extremely powerful and
profound way...I can think of many who would benefit...I can't tell
you how impressed I am...I feel in awe."
_______________________________________________________________
"The
trail was probably the best experience of my life."
