Corporatation Connecting Adventure with Nature Calls offers Corporation participants the opportunity of a lifetime to relax, rejuvenate and reflect in a wilderness space with wild animals and tribal people – African Bush Style. The result is personal and Corporation restructuring with a sense of invigoration, purpose and reconnection.
These Adventures take place throughout Southern and Eastern Africa. The main teachers are animals with social behavior – endangered wild dogs, wise elephants, playful, accepting dolphins, comical wild meerkats, majestic, visionary white lions and a few gentle giants – the silverbacks of the mountain gorilla families in Rwanda. In addition we also learn from the Naro Bushmen of the Kalahari in Botswana and the Ilingwesi clan of the Maasai. They all help us remember what we have forgotten – an interdependence with nature, an ancient wisdom that is more humane and how to preserve our natural heritage. They know how to relate and survive in an ever-changing and ever-challenging world.
Sadly we live in a time where our world is ecologically deteriorating and a technological advance is taking place that is escalating our pace of life beyond our wildest imagination. Most people are troubled, pressurized and unhappy.
As we evolved in adaptation to nature it is best to remember we need Her nurturing wisdom, but we have become Eco-alienated and left-brain dominant. We are not well-adapted to our environment because we are too self-sufficient, our lifestyles are too fast and we lose sight of what is really importnat when we constantly stive for more possessions and always feel strangled by ever-mounting financial pressures.
In the Bush we re-enter a natural space where we can rest our troubled psyches, drop our overwhelming deadlines and instead use all our senses, including our intuition to reconnect – not just with our reasoning minds, but more importantly, with our souls. Emotional and Ecological Intelligence is enahnced and we can contemplate living and working in a way that creates a sense of personal wellbeing and community.
Participation in Nature Calls Adventures are a Holiday and a Life-Changing Event in the most beautiful Natural Heritages sites in Africa – what more can you ask for?
It is the 18th century theologian Thoreau who said:
The intellect of most men is barren. They neither fertilize or are fertilized. It is the marriage of the soul with nature that makes the intellect fruitful, that gives birth to imagination…without nature-awakened imagination most persons do not really live in the world. They just pass through it and live dull lives of quiet desperation.
More recently Edward Wilson, Biologist (1992) agrees and adds:
The human species has had some 3 million years of survival-programming of in how to interact constructively with nature…love and connectedness with the natural world is rooted in our genes – as much a part of our history as love and bonding and having children. We know at a deep body-mind level however dimly that if we continue to reject this programming and do not re-establish a respectful interaction with nature, we will lost not only a vital dimension of our humanness, but eventually also our planet home as a self-renewing, life-nurtuing organism.
