You already know something has to change.
Maybe it is a job that pays and means nothing, a relationship ending or beginning, a loss you have not put down, or the plain sense that the life you are living is not the one you were called to. Advice has not helped. Another book will not help. What helps is stepping out of the noise long enough to hear yourself.
A vision quest is the oldest way humans have done that: fasting, solitude and wild nature, held by people who know the way out and the way back.
Held by people who know the way out and the way back.
