EXPEDITION

WHAT IS AN EXPEDITION?

An 'Expedition' through our eyes, is an experiential ‘journey’ or ‘voyage’ that is undertaken by a group of people sharing a similar vision, goal or set of objectives.

Originally you undertake this journey in order to experience and learn more about yourself and the ‘physical’ world that you find yourself living in. On a deeper level this has the knock-on effect eventually, of helping you open your eyes more fully so you can catch more of a real glimpse internally of your ‘true’ Self, the ‘non-physical’ world, and who you REALLY are.

As by experiencing something new, different and challenging on all levels together with others, and by exploring an unfamiliar landscape, you are left transformed and inspired in ways that you couldn't imagine possible before. You now feel more open to live your dreams, follow your heart and ultimately to go on to discover your full potential in life.

 A FORM OF 'DOWN TO EARTH' SPIRITUALITY

Soul Projects gives you the unique opportunity to challenge yourself and step outside of your comfort zone, while having the chance to discover the true meaning of the word ‘spirituality’ in your own time and in your own space. We help reveal the simple tools that you already have, that will ultimately give you the confidence to explore this part of yourself in a more modern day down to earth way.

Our expedition has been designed for people who have already sensed or felt some kind of hidden mysterious connection or truth to the world. The feeling that there is something larger than life itself going on underneath it all; behind the scenes. As it is this same feeling and curiosity about the world inside you right now that has attracted you to our project.

Have you ever asked yourself ‘Why am I here?’, ‘What is the purpose of life?’, ‘Where did I come from?’ or ‘Where am I going?’ These inquiries are the beginning of a journey into finding a deeper purpose to your life, and Soul Projects is here to help you continue that journey. We simply provide a space for you in a down to earth way, so that you can take the next important step which is to get to understand and know yourself a bit better!

For if we don’t know or understand ourselves, how can we expect to know or understand where we are going or what we are supposed to be doing in life? The simple daily practice of yoga and meditation, the study of ancient teachings & philosophies and reaching out to help others, will give you this opportunity to enhance and develop your understanding of your-Self.

Living in a new environment with a new culture, being a part of a new community and practicing new techniques like yoga and meditation, are all tools to help you get to know yourself better on new levels. Yoga gets you more in touch with your body, meditation connects you more to your mind, and community work unites you more with your heart.

Soul Projects keeps you ‘grounded’ while you explore these new practices. Some people are reluctant or hesitant to explore traditions labelled ‘spiritual’ due to their perceived connection to religion. Our definition of ‘spirituality’ is simply the exploration of the invisible world, spirit or the deeper side of your-Self. This could for you, either take the form of exploring the physical body; by just becoming more flexible, healthy and physically fit, or the mental body; by learning how to calm your busy mind from hurried thoughts, or the soul body; by searching for your purpose in living and what you wish to accomplish in life.

We do not reflect, represent or govern ourselves using a strict set of rules or beliefs. We are a fully ‘free flowing’ and ‘open’ new age and modern day project, that is merely trying to share a different way of thinking and philosophy of life with you. Soul Projects therefore embraces and welcomes people from all walks of life, all faiths and all beliefs.

Whatever stage of life you find yourself in right now, Soul Projects Spiritual Volunteer Expeditions and Adventure Treks are created to help give you the opportunity to discover and find out more about ‘your-Self,’ and this ‘beautiful, weird, wonderful and whacky’ world you find yourself living in.
