A Mystic Nature Experience is your immersive opportunity to walk with healing and well-being.

A growing body of research points to the beneficial effects that exposure to the natural world has on health, reducing stress and promoting healing. Some studies even pull out further clarification that immersive experiences in nature are essential to produce lasting benefits in the form of lower blood pressure, higher concentration, and improved mental health.

With practice, patience, and trust a Mystic Nature Experience can rekindle your connection deep within — allowing you to see yourself, and everything around you, differently. Here are four practical outcomes:

Relaxation and Calm

Do you live a fast-paced life and never seem to be able to slow down? Is it hard for you to detach from work demands?

Mindful walking in organic elements quickly brings about calming endorphins.

A new look at nature

Is it a struggle to connect with your natural environment? Do you only see nature through the lens of social media?

Learning how to pay attention opens up a new world, inviting balance and restoration.

Get back down to earth

Do you feel helpless with so many stressful current events? Are vices overutilized in your life?

Mother Earth gives you a reliable source of grounding, which improves well-being.

Healing work

Have you hit a wall with life events, and it feels like there is no way to move on?

Even a few minutes of quiet meditation in nature nudges you forward in your healing work.

Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.

– Frank Lloyd Wright

I’m Matthew Kessi, your guide

I’m glad you’re here and look forward to our experience together, walking in the organic world toward healing and well-being.

I’ve invested a lifetime in nature, leading others through nature, photographing nature, and writing about it too. Travels all over the globe have taught me that with the right sight, an amazing unseen world emerges to help us heal, grow and realize our dreams.

They say the best way is “through,” even though that often means facing difficult truth-telling and very uncomfortable conversations. My own healing path required courage to face my past directly in order to grow and transform. It isn’t easy. 

But in the thick of it, Mother Earth was there to help me integrate nature into my healing and a renewed focus on well-being. Copious amounts of practice and trust allowed my mystic gifts to blossom — leading to a unique ability to bridge the world we see with the unseen realm of nature.

When we walk together, my nature experiences can provide you tools that — with practice, patience, and trust — open your eyes to a new view of everything, including yourself.

Let me be your bridge to connect to the healing powers of nature — and to transformation.

Going into your own nature

I facilitate these 5 steps into the mystic nature experience. They will help you see yourself, and the world around you, differently — in healing ways that will transform your life.


  1. Engage

  3. Acknowledge the land
    Be mindful of the landscape and historical peoples.
  4. Pay attention
    Notice the details — savor the colors, sounds, smells, and touch. Look up and down.
  5. Allow transformation The medicine doesn’t stop when you leave a session — integrate the nature experience into your daily life.

See what they’re saying.

Healing and wellness abound. Take it from these recent testimonials.

Nature Heals. So grateful I experienced the Mystic Nature walk curated by Matthew Kessi. Gift yourself the experience. 

A delicate dahlia bloom shows off in a seattle garden in the summer season. There are bark chips on the ground blurred out and bushy green leaves. The flower is yellow on the center and various shades of purple and pink on the outer petals.

Talking a walk in the woods with Matthew brought me a deep sense of well-being and healing. Being lovingly guided in a new way of interacting with nature was such a wonderful treat for this life-long nature lover. I highly recommend leaving your expectations in the car and exploring what messages Mother Nature has for you.

My family and I walked the Arboretum with Matthew in February.  We each had our own personal journey yet we became closer to one another and to dear Mother Nature.
