Reconnect with a lifestyle of rest and play
The Modern Naturalist program was born out of my own personal brand of wellness. I developed this program after taking a yearlong sabbatical period from work. Having experienced burnout not once, but twice, I realized it was time to do something wildly different. Here, I share a collection of practices and places that have helped me to be –and stay– well.
What People Are Saying
“Jasjeet has really helped me reconnect with rest and play. I’ve struggled with living my life from human doing rather than human being - trying to achieve in order to be loved and accepted by society. Jasjeet helps me realign with my inner wisdom and find love and acceptance from within. From such a place, I’ve become reconnected with experiences that bring deep peace, joy, and satisfaction.

Excursions
Ready to recharge?
It is time spent in wildplaces that recharges my soul the most. These weekend retreats are designed to help you rest, unplug, and adventure. I introduce you to some of my favorite places through a half-day or full-day field trip, and then leave you with an itinerary to continue exploring on your own or with your group.
Trips include:
1:1 orientation call
½ day or full-day field trip
Custom weekend itinerary
1:1 reflection & integration call after the trip
Note: Travel and lodging are not provided, and they will need to be booked by the participants. I would be happy to share ideas during the orientation call.
