WOMEN’s WILDERNESS IMMERSION

May 6th-11th 2026

West Highlands, Scotland

The Women’s Wilderness Immersion every May is a deep dive into re-villaging and re-wilding ourselves as women. Together we will embark on a journey to deeply immerse ourselves in the wild landscape of the Scottish Highlands, in communion with the elements, our ancestors, and the circle of women, stripping back all the distractions of modern life to truly be in the present with the magic of the wild.

This immersion is for you if you are looking for an authentic, loving, no frills group of women embarking on an adventure held by female facilitators who have years and years of experience living in the wild, circling with women, practicing ancestral crafts, and singing as a practice of community ritual and expression.
This is for any woman who has a calling to experience true sisterhood as part of village life and the blossoming of female connection when we join together all of our skills to create a circle of beauty and love.

On this 5 days & 5 nights immersion, we will be carrying on our backs (& with the help of our sisters) all we need for our wilderness village to a remote location where we’ll create and build camp built by only our own hands. There will be an invitation into learning wilderness skills & practices, overcoming fear of the wild, and surrendering to the elements.

Some of our daily activities will include :
foraging wild foods
cooking with fire learning ancestral crafts
creating land & ancestor ceremonies
silent times to deeply commune with the stillness of the wild
wild swimming
sharing circles
and lots and lots of singing throughout!

Lucy is passionate about the power of Wilderness immersion to empower, inspire and unite. She has spent many days and nights Wild Camping in the UK, cultivating a deep listening, connection and intimacy to the true nature within and with-out.

Her reverent, playful and exploratory approach to life combined with multiple trauma informed support trainings enables Lucy to create and hold space in the most compassionate, heart led and solacing way.

is a ceremonial musician, song-writer and creator of Hearth-song mystery school. She is devoted to tending the collective hearth of the world with song and ceremony, weaving the wisdom of nature through healing medicine music and guiding people to remember the power of their voice.

Mae has been in a deep study of ceremony and the wisdom of connecting to Mother Earth as a healer and teacher for over a decade, dedicating her life to rewilding her body, mind and spirit so she can be a clear vessel for life to flow through.

She has created a life in close relationship to the earth, living in off grid communities all over the world for over ten years, studying permaculture and ancestral skills. She now lives in an eco village in Cymru, and is devoted to tending the land and learning how to be in right relationship to the elements and all of life.

MAE BIRD

is a song weaver, musician and land tender from the bonnie lands of Scotland. Her path in the healing arts of music, ritual, and ceremony have been a deep and transformative home-coming to the medicine of Ancestral life ways, earth-based spirituality and the importance of sacred Women’s Work at this time on the planet.

Her many years experience living off grid, mostly nomadic, learning from communities and cultures all over the world has ignited a deep purpose in her to guide people home to the nourishing, soulful ways of our ancestors - especially those of the Celtic Isles, through song & craft & nature connection.

She has a degree in Adventure Tourism and spent most of her younger adult life training, teaching & guiding both children and adults in outdoor sports such as climbing, mountaineering, kayaking and skiing.

Testimonials from our May ‘25 Immersion

‘Emerging from our days in the wilds together was like emerging into life anew, nourished to the bones and tender hearted from all the beauty that naturally arises from simply spending time with other women on the land. Simple, yet utterly profound.
It was so far beyond what I could have ever imagined, and my heart was opened wider than I thought possible. We were so tenderly cared for and fed with so much beauty - whether that was song, ceremony, time to craft, or space to simply be and stretch into the timeless time that invites true intimacy with the land. Plus of course the food that filled our bellies (which was nourishing beyond belief and so carefully and lovingly prepared).
The depth of holding that Mae, Mairead and Lucy brought to this space was extraordinary, and I’ll carry what we experienced together with me for a very long time’
‘I can't describe how good it feels to know, in my body and heart, that people like you are out there doing work like this - that I am not alone with my wild visions! I'm someone who struggles with being intensively in group settings, yet I also crave and need like-minded community, and I did not realise how powerfully affirming it would be to be surrounded by women with the same core values as me. I don't think I've ever experienced that before, actually.

You provided a safe way for me to experience being in the wild, growing my confidence to be in wild spaces in future. The food was incredible - I'm still dreaming about the venison stew from day 2! I felt a big shift in my relationship with my period from the way you talked about that and welcomed it. And of course I loved the singing!
I'm taking away a lot of beautiful inspiration from this experience, a deep validation of my dreams, and I feel one step closer to one day creating the wild spaces of my visions.
THANK YOU! <3’
‘I feel I will never be able to adequately put into words how transformative, inspirational, changing, calming, soul inspiring and wild my time on the rewilding retreat really was. What i can tell you is the girls are kind, knowledgable, deeply connected people who will keep you in a space that feels both safe and wild, and will allow you the freedom to deeply connect both with yourself, the group, ancestors and the land. I truly hope for everyone to be able to have this experience, one will come out a better person to have been touched by their magic.’
