"I had the pleasure of taking 16 high-school students to one of Thriving Sun's workshops. I cannot recommend Thriving Sun enough. Excellent facilitation that got us all to look within and practice vulnerability. After a 20-minute solo walk in the jungle, we all returned to the circle refreshed and aligned. The students were entranced the entire time and when it was over many of them said it was a life-changing experience. Connection is made in nature and Thriving Sun has figured out how to facilitate that!"
- Chris C., THRIVING SUN participant
"Thriving Sun helped me feel connected to the land, and understand how powerful I am. I left feeling uplifted, motivated, and connected. The impact of the experience still has major ripples in my life and would recommend this work to anyone seeking to get in better touch with themselves, the land, or both."
