Pelagus was born from my genuine wish to broaden the work I began with in Sailing into Wellness, where we support community groups through nature-based recovery. Over time, I met individuals searching for something deeper, something that combined the healing power of nature with personal transformation.
That’s how Pelagus came to life. In Pelagus we challenge ourselves to push through our comfort zone allowing ourselves to feel vulnerable in a new environment.
We connect with nature in many ways: sailing, canoeing, horse riding, golfing. But we also connect with our own natural being—through Qigong and Chinese medicine.
The connection with nature speaks to us. It transforms us in ways that feel effortless. Suddenly, you find yourself deeply connected to a part of yourself that’s been waiting. That part might still cause pain. But you have the acceptance and commitment to observe it, and to transform it.
Sailing the vast seas helped me do this. It changed my life. And my wish is to give others that same experience.
Adventure therapy is not just about physical activity, it’s about engaging with life. It’s about stepping out of your comfort zone, facing challenges, and discovering new strengths.
Every hike, paddle, climb, or breath in nature becomes a metaphor for change.
