Wild and Free
Women Who Run with the Wolves
Wild, Free…and Wolfy!
Everything you love about Wild and Free…with added wolves! Imagine meditating in a woodland glade under the moon, gazing into the flickering flames of a campfire and letting go of what no longer serves you as you step into more freedom and wildness.
Imagine a crackling firepit nestled amongst fiery autumnal trees…a small, intimate group of likeminded women getting back to basics….three days and two nights living, sleeping and waking up as a village in nature…
Imagine gentle yet powerful movement, meditation and mindfulness practices…dynamic meditation under the stars with silent disco headsets…guided enquiry…delicious campfire-cooked food….songs and stories around the campfire…
Imagine gazing into the eyes of a real life wolf, sinking your hands into deep, soft fur, and having an embodied, visceral experience of true wildness as this creature - the epitome of wild and free - trusts you with its presence.
We’re back, with an even deeper. longer exploration into what it means to be Wild and Free….
Wild and Free: Women Who Run with the Wolves. A four day wild meditation retreat with Jen Le Marinel and Annie Stoker.

Are you ready to be wild and free?
Join me, “Queen of Wildness”, and “Queen of Freedom” Annie Stoker for a an even deeper wild and freeing meditation retreat out in nature. Four days of switching off, slowing down, tuning in…and exploring who we are away from the routines, labels, masks and “shoulds” of the outside world.
Jen regularly takes her BeWild women to meet the wolves but this is the first time you have an opportunity to access this wild wisdom outside of her year long programme. We’ll spend a day hanging out with and learning from these magnificent beings - a true deep-soul experience - as well as a trip to the sea for a refreshing dip or meditative wave-gaze.
Of course there’ll also be our usual dancing under the moon and dark nights spent cosied up around the fire, AND a gorgeous wood-fired horsebox sauna! As always, you can expect to find more wildness and freedom, deep connections with likeminded women, fun fireside sessions, mindfulness, movement, wild practices and of course wild dynamic meditations not just in the day but also under a (hopefully!) moonlit sky.

You'll arrive after lunch on day one, and leave after lunch on the final day.

Yes. Nobody goes hungry on my retreats! The retreat includes all breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks while you are there. The food will be wholesome, nutritious and delicious, and we will come together to cook over the campfire. Most major dietary requirements will be catered for. If you have very specific requirements please let me know.

You absolutely don't have to be a seasoned outdoorsy person to enjoy and benefit from this retreat. In fact it is designed for those who wouldn't necessarily go camping or out on their own, but who feel drawn to nature and would like to experience what it's like to immerse yourself in nature in a safe way.
This will be a safe compassionate space for you to explore what it is like to be truly out in nature, with the support of Jen, Annie and other like minded women.
Full support, kit lists, pre-retreat prep and practicalities will be given (especially for those who have never camped before), and Jen is a pro at making camping doable for people who are nervous about it. Camping is a big part of this retreat, so do expect to camp and get back to basics (with a few creature comforts!).
This retreat will challenge you - indeed that is one of the reasons it is so transformational - but possibly in ways you don’t expect! You may well meet your "edge", so you must be prepared for that. If you are willing to explore courage and are willing to be a little bit uncomfortable in the name of connecting with yourself and nature even more profoundly, then yes, this retreat is for you.
-
Ideally, yes, although I do have a couple of small tents that you can hire for the weekend (£20), which will be available on a first-come-first-served basis. If you bring your own tent it MUST be a small 1-3 person tent (not a big family tent) as space is limited! You will need to bring your own bedding/mattresses etc.
A full kit list and more information about what you need to bring with you will be provided when you book, but if you have any questions do feel free to email me to ask.
-
There are a couple of beautiful compost loos “with a view” along with rustic handwashing stations. There are no showers, but a beautiful stream for freshening up in! Many women think they will find this one of the most challenging aspects of the retreat but it just becomes part of the adventure.
-
We'll dance in it! 😉 Rain is just another adventure.
Yes, it might change some of our activities slightly however we have several sheltered areas under which we can gather, including either a gorgeous roundhouse and an outdoors kitchen.
We will go out with the wolves in all except the worst weather, but will have a covered area and fire to gather around in between the sessions with the wolves.
If you've ever been under canvas in a rain shower you'll know how heavenly it can be....imagine sipping steaming mugs of tea or hot chocolate, feeling the fuzzy warmth of the fire on your face, listening to the pitter patter of raindrops on the canvas and in the trees.....

Bonuses include a pre-retreat “prep and practicalities call” (online) to help you prepare for the retreat.
