Nature Therapy
One of the most inspiring things about going on safari is how being in step with nature makes you find your own rhythm too, and at Karen Blixen Camp, guests can shape the flow of each day according to what resonates with them most. Every moment holds the potential for the healing power of the wilderness to unfold – from relaxing into soothing wellness treatment or a therapeutic body massage whilst being out in one of the world’s most beautiful places listening to the rich bird life and the sounds of the Mara river flowing by, to gathering around a fire, and enjoying nourishing meals bursting with the fresh flavors of the season.
The benefits of being outdoors are well-documented – unpolluted air, quietude, and stepping out into untouched wilderness all contribute greatly to your physical health. But physical health is just one aspect of well-being as a whole. At Karen Blixen Camp, you get to have transformative experiences that touch guests on physical, mental and emotional levels.
Your day starts gently with coffee or soothing herbal tea while watching and listening to the bush and all its lifeforms waking up. As the fresh air and soft colors at sunrise usher you into awareness, excitement mounts with the realization that soon, you’ll journey deep into the wilderness for unscripted experiences that surprise at every turn. Whether it’s on a game drive, bush walk or captivating bird-watching excursion, unspoilt beauty and a complete immersion in nature awaits.
Allowing your day to unfold mindfully and in the moment, creative and contemplative ways to awaken the senses include relaxing with a good book at your private veranda while looking at the sturdy buffaloes, the grand elands and the numerous zebras grazing the corridor of the impressive Oloololo Escarpment, just opposite your cosy canvas tent, enjoying a refreshing swim in our chic and organic shaped swimming pool lying on the comfortable sun beds and enjoying a refreshing drink, or meditating outside while taking in the wonderful surroundings.
At Karen Blixen Camp, we believe in the freedom to weave tactile and spiritual experiences together to create opportunities to unplug mentally and cherish life-changing encounters shared with those that you love, and the space and time to turn moments of rest into meaningful journeys of renewal.
