Spiritual and practical preparation
for walking a pilgrimage

Pilgrimage begins in the heart and with the first steps into the unknown. The essence of the Camino de Santiago (the Way of Saint James) or any other pilgrimage walk is the encounters with and between yourself, others, and the Universe as you walk step by step along the path.

This workshop encourages you become more aware of your "call" and motivation for going on your pilgrimage. We encourage you to face fears and emotional feelings and come to see them as gifts to help you to discover new insights. We also want to support you by helping you to decide what things to take along and to discover and celebrate the gifts of the joys, doubts, crisis, and fears that will surely come up before you walk and as you walk.

We tell you our stories and help you open up to life-changing experiences. No one returns from a pilgrimage unchanged.

This workshop gives you insights into the practical side of this pilgrimage walk: a slide show of our walk, planning your walk, what to take along, where to stay, the path, and the walking itself. We talk about your pharmacy, the spiritual and physical tools you have to help you through difficult times on your walk.

We talk about walking long distances and how each of us, no matter our age or physical condition, can walk at our own pace. We also practice slow walking, a help against hurting feet.

The workshop dares you to open up to the wonderful things you can discover on your pilgrimage walk as you follow your call into the unknown.
