3-Day Journey Program
Location:Antbear Eco Lodge, Drakensberg
This is an intensive introductory self-discovery coaching program. The perfect place for healing, this program is for those who feel overwhelmed, hopeless, or confused and want to dip their toes into the coaching program without committing to the full 5 or 7 day program.

The 3-day program is a condenced version of the 5 and 7 day program, and excludes a massage and parts integration coaching session and have very little free time for leisure activities. You are, however, welcome to book an extra day to explore the region or simply relax on your own.
