The Hearth 2027

The Hearth is a ceremonial nature-immersion retreat. During these six days, you will be spending extended time in nature, expanding your boundaries and your ability to communicate with the world, through fasting, guided breath and voicework, and prayerful movement. You will spend time sitting in council around the fire, sleeping under the stars, off-grid and close to the land, with just yourself, with nature and with a small group of fellow explorers.

This is a timely invitation to leave behind the trappings of your busy life and sink deep into the mystery that is the natural world, and begin to understand your intimate relationship with it. This is a call for you to sink a tap-root deep down into the soil, to connect you back with the source of all things, to find ballast, balance and a new orientation for yourself and for the future.

with Mac Macartney and Tugba Kirhan 

In this ceremony, in the beautiful valley of Embercombe, we follow the steps of those who walked this wild land thousands of years ago, connecting with something sacred, sometimes forgotten and yet very necessary, now more urgently than ever. Our intention is to find a deeper appreciation of ourselves as a crucial part of nature, rather than separate from it, and the sense of belonging, peace and purpose that this may bring for us and those that we return to. Join us.

The Hearth is open to those who have participated in The Journey at Embercombe and to anyone who is ready to deepen  their understanding of themselves and the unique offering they can make to the world.
