Excursion description
Transform your visit to the Atacama Desert into an opportunity to harmonize your relationship with yourself and with nature.
This exclusive tour invites the traveler to an Insight, an encounter with himself immersed in the silence and vastness of nature, through various techniques and dynamics of self-awareness in integration with the environment, led by a specialist psychologist who will guide the process of Self-knowledge through a 2-day off-circuit tour.
"Insight Tour" is an exploration that integrates the discovery of space and ourselves, through which the discovery and deepening of the emotions and psychological experiences that arise in each explorer when maintaining active contact with nature is facilitated and developed, especially in the privileged physical spaces that are in the Atacama salt flat and its surroundings.
It is not just about taking a Tour to see fascinating places, but integrating and taking advantage of the experiences that arise in-situ, as well as those that are relived by each individual in the process of contact with nature.
Thus, the ultimate objective of this trip is that through self-observation of their own emotional dynamics, each person reaches within their personal meaning system new notions of themselves, articulated in more flexible, abstract and integrated levels, organization that allow greater self-knowledge and personal development, and all this in the breathtaking landscapes of the Atacama desert.
Tour development
The tour consists of 2 full days in which 4 self-knowledge processes will be carried out through interaction with fundamental elements of nature: Earth, Water, Air and Fire.
We will perform active and passive meditation dynamics, psychocalistenia, relaxation, reflection and self-observation according to each process.
