I’m a Kripalu School of Mindful Outdoor Leadership graduate from 2023. I had read Micah’s book Rewilding and was really interested in deepening my own sense of Nature connection. I signed up for the program, never having been to Kripalu. I have experience as an educator and facilitator, and you might say came in with some high expectations. I was absolutely blown away by the program and Kripalu Center. The structure and pace of the program were well crafted and maximized the immersive experience. Micah, Katie, the assistants, and guest speakers, were exceptional at delivering content and creating a rich learning environment. Every aspect of the program fostered connection and expanded awareness; inner and outer. The land itself seemed to want us to learn and grow and reconnect, providing gentle and affectionate support, mirroring the ideas our brains were absorbing. I could go on. It was more than a training program, it was a transformative experience for me and I can’t wait to return.
