Feedback from some of last year’s participants:
Within the gentle safety of this camp-community, I was able to journey & venture. I was able to, for example, identify a deeply-engrained pattern of mine, in relation to how I react to other people’s ‘aggressive’ behaviour. And I felt secure enough to explore it – with the wonderful support of certain folk who I felt able to lean towards for support (you know who u r – deep thanx!) The exploration was in no way easy – I was distressed for a great part of it. It was as scary as, say, deep-sea exploration. But safe in the knowledge I had a well-trained & competent crew on the surface to help me if & when I needed it.

Really missing the adult and children companionship. Missing sharing a space with so many other people with shared values. Holding how precious that was and wanting more of it. Missing that space where I felt able to speaking authentically from my heart, where I witnessed and hear so many other people speaking their truth. I found being at the camp incredible and it was profoundly healing for me having so many people around to offer their time, give me empathy, allow me space to process a lot of issues that were triggered for me during the week. Blessings to you all for that.
I found when I was there at the camp, I did connect to something like abundance energy. Something like If I let go of the strategy of any particular person meeting a need of mine, and somehow just trust that the universe would provide, then someone would appear joyfully willing to meet my need. Something about me moving to a more trusting and abundance way of living.

I listened again to the song we sang at the closing circle: ‘How could anyone ever tell you?’ on YouTube. Am feeling pain and loss, it has propelled me back to that day, leaving the camp, and how overwhelmed I felt by beautiful and painful emotions. I feel confused as tears pore down my cheeks.
I found walking round like that, a beautiful way to thank all my new, true, real friends (you). I had lots of things I wanted to say in that leaving circle after, but found that I chose not too, due to being overwhelmed. I feel the same now, as I get in touch with those feelings! Maybe words seem unable to express what I feel in these moments? The only thing I can say is it is a rare thing in my life to have got so many needs met at the same time, with so little effort, and in such a willing way. I am so grateful – to the camp, to the community, to the individuals – and I want more. Thank you.
Lots of loving and deeply best wishes to you all.

For myself, I found deep connections, love, peace, learning and healing. On the final day I saw two people hugging. It was something I’ve only dreamed of…how they hugged each other with completely open hearts.
I don’t know how to have more fun! Holidays just don’t do it for me – it’s NVC camps all the way! – Shantigarbha
