About Mindful Inaction

Welcome to the Fundamental Quest

Our system is rooted in the teachings of G.I. Gurdjieff, engaging with those who resonate with the profound "Great Doing" of self-transformation. We embrace an alternative approach to end-of-life preparation, creating a unique atmosphere where individuals from all walks of life find the courage and "Silence within the Storm" to share experiences, recognizing that any day could be our last.

Mindful Inaction

We advocate for mindful inaction—a conscious choice of "doing" through "not-doing"—as opposed to reacting from unregulated emotional turmoil. Self-awareness begins with observing our general lack of will and the state of "sleep" that prevents us from being truly present in the "Now," where conscious decisions are made.

The Essence of "The Work"

Known as "The Work" or "The Fourth Way," Gurdjieff’s system encapsulates our objective to understanding and embracing the shadows in our lives, fostering hope for genuine self-transformation. Our system promotes optimal functioning both externally in terms of physical conflict resolution and internally in terms of finding purpose.

Our Comprehensive Approach

Our approach combines self-development principles with defensive craftsmanship, emphasizing psychological stability and self-awareness. Recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and emotions, we focus on "Equanimity" through attention practices and facilitated micro-dosing with plant medicine therapy. This helps sustain equanimity and awaken memory of higher functioning, enabling conscious evolution.

Our Mission

We believe that reconnecting with our natural environments and essence is fundamental to achieving true personal transformation. Our mission is to accompany individuals on their journey of self-discovery and optimal functioning through immersive physical and psychological conflict resolution practices, immune balance restoration, and spiritual alignment. By fostering a deeper connection and living each day as if it were the last, we enrich life for the healthy and optimize chances of remission or relief for the terminally ill.

We create awe-inspiring experiences in profound surroundings—whether far out on the ocean, atop a mountain, or in a hot air balloon over the Namibian desert. We are all on the same sacred journey, regardless of our current situation. How we embrace it is up to us.

The Quest

We challenge you to join the Quest; to reach deep within and sit around our campfire. Our limited spaces will be consciously integrated to accommodate a balanced representation of terminally ill and healthy individuals under one big sky… Silence.

Equanimity

"Equanimity – a state of psychological stability and composure that is undisturbed by the experience of, or exposure to emotions, pain, or other phenomena, which may cause others to lose the balance of their mind."
