September 2023Why Nature?
Modern life bombards us with stimuli, leading to stress and burnout. Nature, on the other hand, is a natural refuge that resonates with our biology. Just the sight of greenery evokes feelings of safety and calm. Yet, daily demands often override this connection. Ignored signals from nature lead to anxiety, stress, and stagnation in personal and professional life.
I went into this experience with anxiety, anger, and fear, along with questions about my divine assignment. I walked out of the beautiful woods more grounded, with a fresh, open heart, relieved of pain and filled with comfort and hope. Matthew Kessi, you have a gift, and you are a gift! Many thanks to you and, as always, gorgeous Mother Nature.

The Call to Action: Is This Journey Right for You?
Ask yourself:
- Are you content with the status quo in your life?
- Are you willing to pay the emotional, spiritual, physical, and financial cost of inaction?
- Is your life heading toward positive change, or will inaction lead to further decline?
- Are you facing the aftermath of trauma, trapped emotions, or unresolved issues?
This nature escape on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula offered me just what I needed — restoration and practical tools for finding balance in my everyday life.
Matthew is a gracious, welcoming, calming force. His leadership fostered connections — within myself, other guests, and the powerful messages of the Natural World. He led us into both inner and outer worlds, encouraging curiosity. And a new perspective about slowing down to “nature’s pace” unfolded in real time.
The weekend taught me a simple yet profound lesson: focus on one thing at a time and be present in every moment. I use this daily without fail — even months since my retreat.

My partner and I joined Matthew for a premium nature immersion retreat on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State. The experience was unexpectedly powerful, nurturing introspection to address our distinct needs. While my partner focused on career challenges, I worked through residual grief after losing my mother. Despite similar exercises, Matthew’s innate ability as a spiritual guide led us to distinct and beneficial outcomes. This meditation retreat and the rejuvenating power of the natural world can benefit anyone at any life stage. Whether confronting career dilemmas or personal struggles, it provides a space for reflection and gratitude. Even those in a positive place can find solace and connection with our abundant planet.

June 2023I moved to Washington a few weeks before attending Matthew’s Nature meditation retreat, and the chance to learn about and go deep into the Olympic rainforest beguiled me. I expected to satisfy a fifty-year-old yearning to walk among the majesty of old-growth trees.
I didn’t expect that Matthew’s leadership, using simple questions, would lead me deep into an age-old anger I held around my father. With gentle coaxing, I let it go — actually watched it depart — and experienced profound healing. A new sense of freedom has taken up residence in me ever since.
