Complexity is all about interconnection, interdependence, and emergent effects, constantly made in action. This is especially important when it comes to ourselves as physical beings. It is time to remember again that the “human” in anthrocomplexity is not a disembodied mind, it is not a mechanical body, and it is not an island, entire of itself. Complex humans are mind-body-world beings, all rolled into one.

So join us for this retreat as we explore those connections through faculty in medicine, neuroscience, and literature: how are our minds of our bodies? What does our cognition mean for our view of the world? What are the enabling constraints of the physical and mental worlds we inhabit?

We will undertake this exploration in the place where a pilgrimage begins, and this is not by accident; a pilgrimage is one of the places where these things come together as the pilgrim walks, contemplates, and seeks a destination in a very particular place and landscape, alongside others. Let’s be pilgrims together.

This Retreat is followed by an invitation to join a group Camino de Santiago – please see the next tab for details.

Camino de Santiago

Note Retreat dates are 2 – 4 October inclusive.

This will be followed by a Camino Portugues, from Porto to Santiago.

  • Camino dates: 5 – 18 October (note you can join for part only as preferred)
  • Approximate cost: €2000 per person single, or €1650 per person sharing
    This is payable to the Caminoways organisers and includes the full Camino accommodation, breakfasts, dinners, luggage transfers and transfer to Porto Airport for departures.

We will be booking our Camino trip via https://caminoways.com/ who coordinate group bookings and travel on the Camino. Individuals will be able to book directly with them, linked to our group to facilitate individual choices. You are welcome to join for part or all of the planned distance.

Note that should you wish to earn your official Camino pilgrim’s certificate, you need to join for the last 100km of the Camino at a minimum (from Vigo to Santiago).
