Go Wild

About

Structures won’t last forever, stress and overcompensating for unhappiness isn’t ‘just part of life’. In fact, it can all be changed. We can all be happy.

VISION
Go Wild Sweden empowers you to get back in touch with yourself through nature. It provides courses to recover and rediscover yourself or as a team. This is the core competence of the 15 Go Wild development options. The philosophy behind this concept will now be explained.
Inner calmness is a state of personal balance. No highs and lows, just you and the moment. Putting yourself in nature and reaching acceptance with yourself and your surroundings brings you to the ultimate state of being. Letting go of a life overruled by controlling behaviour is something nature can teach you.
Nature may seem unstructured, but it is organised in a very organic way. This way can be called the eco-system. It is a way of organising that requires less control then we are used to in our day to day modern life. Nature does not think, it just goes, based on doing the right thing within its own structures.

As humans we are part of nature’s eco-system as well. Some of us have distanced ourselves from being a part of the ecology. Nowadays we are born in a world and a society that already has everything we need. We have structures and luxury that helps us cope with day to day challenges. We take our part in it and contribute to what is already there.

The control that you have over our modern life does not exist within nature. Out there, you have to find a way to understand nature in order to survive. You have to find more basic ways to provide for yourself or for a group. Everything you need has to be created by you. You start to notice every single detail in your surroundings. You are no longer distracted by the assets of modern life. These details will be part of your survival tools.

Noticing these details is necessary in order to explore the full potential of your surroundings. You will discover how to find nature’s assets and how to use them to sustain yourself. Besides nature’s potential, you will notice your personal potential. You have the potential to keep yourself warm, comfortable, happy and healthy. Therefore you have to be willing to co-create with nature.

To fully understand your own potential you have to be willing to expose yourself to nature and your fellow survivors. You have to work efficient and you have to discover the working potential of a team. You can survive alone, but you will notice that if you discover an efficient role play within the team, you can achieve more in less time. This gives you more spare time.

There are different techniques in how to build fires, find food and build shelter. Still the one thing that you will learn is that you have to work for survival. It brings you fulfilment and a purpose. You will notice that surviving can be time consuming according to how forgiving your environment is. As soon as you have built your base, you will have time to nurture your base, relax and enjoy the beauty of nature and silence. This is a challenge you have to endure every day..

Nature brings you back to the authenticity of yourself and your surroundings. You will feel drawn to certain activities. Activities you find useful for survival. These activities have a deeper meaning to you. When you think of the purpose of the activity that you choose to do, you will be able to discover your talents and personal mission in their most authentic form.

You will experience a change in mindset during your time in nature. No matter how captured you are in your modern life, in time you will forget about your day to day responsibilities. Other things will demand your attention, or you will simply not be able to work on modern life challenges.

Nature teaches you to go back to where it all begins. When you know where you and your world is made of, you will be able to bring this back to your day to day life. You will learn to let go of unrealistic fears. You will understand that every aspect in your modified life is for you to either accept or change, to the point where you can live a satisfied life and accept the beauty of it.

Nature will help you find the confidence you need in order to change what you can change and to accept what you can’t. This realisation of: making choices is always an option, gives you a sense of ownership over your life. It gives you the confidence that you can indeed influence your own life to something that makes a change for yourself and maybe even to this world. You will feel more peaceful, happy and confident. Foremost you will appreciate and value nature more as it is.

The only thing that you can influence directly is you. Everything else is up to nature. But maybe one day your choices will inspire others to live a great life as well.
