WILD WELLNESS METHOD
A SCRIPT TO WHOLESOME LIVING
FREE MINI COURSE
The Wild Wellness Method is an Australian first - a merging of wellness professionals, decades of experience and global thought leaders - delivered through retreats, Tasmanian Walking Company partnered walks and online courses. It's the latest antidote to modern day stress; a wholesome script to wellness - as seen on Channel 10's Well Traveller episode here. Think ocean plunges, practitioner-led fireside sessions, powerful journaling and guided breathwork served up with nourishing Tassie fare. Our team spans a cold water guru trained by Wim Hof himself, doctor, psychologist, mindset coach, NLP Master Practitioner, author, yoga instructor, personal trainer and more.
We believe there is no better place than Tasmania for wellness. It's one of the last wild frontiers, at the edge of the world. Here, we breathe some of the world's cleanest air. 
It's wild. It's also the home of national award-winning Wild Wellness.

WILD WELLNESS FIRE + ICE WALK

A$249.00

May 14, July 9, Aug 13 & Sept 24 | Also available by group request 

KUNANYI / MOUNT WELLINGTON, SOUTHERN TAS


DO NOTE: To register interest click here and name your retreat option, as spots are limited.


Discover Wild Wellness through fire and ice


Ready to deeply share the wilds of kunanyi? This is a truly immersive day out, a feast for the senses. You'll experience what Wild Wellness is about through journaling, meditation, mountain water dipping and connecting to nature. Discover the wonders of kunanyi like never before. Listen to the stories of the mountain's history and unique plants and animals all in the care of knowledgeable local guides. Be coached through Wim Hof Method breathwork and icy river plunge (by Piet, trained by Wim Hof himself) followed by writer-led journaling beside a roaring fire and mountain stream.


The small group experience visits North West Bay River which collects its crystal waters from kunanyi's alpine plateau. We'll head off along the Cathedral Rock Track following the gurgling mountain river for about 2km. Once we've settled in on the river bank we'll have an extended break for our breathwork and cool river plunge (not compulsory but will ignite every sense!) After returning along the track fully refreshed, enjoy a gourmet burger lunch. It's a hearty Tasmanian affair with plump burgers and local flavours on the menu including East Coast cheeses and Pigeon Hole Baker treats to keep you going.


Not sure what to expect. Read about our 2021 retreat in the SMH and 5 reasons why you should join us on the mountain!


Let kunanyi / Mount Wellington connect and ground you.


To book your spot on this intimate walk visit: Fire + Ice Walk

*if you’re keen to plunge, please bring a towel and spare thermals. You might also like to bring along your own yoga mat and blankie for the breathwork, though we'll have some on hand.

What others say ...

In need of a personal reset & reboot I booked the Wild Wellness Walk. This trip delivered just that, plus a whole lot more. Passionate & knowledgeable guides reconnected me to mother nature. Daily practice of the Wim Hof method invigorated & renewed. Evening journal writing guided by Alice Hansen gave everyone time to reflect & discuss ‘Connection, Care & Commitment.’ A trip that nourishes the body, mind & soul. Life changing for me.

WHAT IS WILD WELLNESS?

This blueprint for wellness is an Australian first; taking years of science-backed knowledge and condensing it into days. It’s a simple, wholesome wellness script. There is no better place on the planet to experience Wild Wellness than Tasmania.

Australia's Productivity Commission Report estimates mental illness is costing Australia $220 billion a year. Our burdened health system cannot cope. We believe there's another way ... a wilder way. No matter what your wellness goals might be, this method is about returning to you; listening in.

The method is based on three core pillars: connection, care and commitment. Think invigorating cold dips, nourishing Tassie fare and fireside journal writing. You'll discover a blueprint to lasting wellness. We take the best of the traditional model and bring it into nature’s office.


WHAT IS THE WIM HOF METHOD?

It's a combination of breathing, cold therapy and commitment, offering a range of benefits. The power of the Wim Hof Method can help unlock a range of well-researched and documented health benefits including:

·      Rebalancing your immune system

·      Reducing inflammation

·      Improving focus, mood and cognitive function

·      Improving cardiovascular health

·      Balancing the body's stress response

RETREAT ELEMENTS: JOURNALING/CONTEMPLATIVE WALKING

The power of hitting pen to paper. It’s not new. Leonardo da Vinci’s journals spanned some 5,000 pages. But the therapeutic wonders of reflective writing didn’t emerge until the 1960s, when a New York psychologist devised what he coined the Intensive Journal Method. On this walk, we won’t pen thousands of pages but we will invite self-discovery through the written word. Our Wild Wellness Journaling Method will cross our three foundational pillars.

We combine journal writing with optional contemplative walking. In a noisy world it’s rare to hear nature’s silence. But in this Tasmanian stillness, it’s possible to reconnect with you. Nature has a way of casting its healing spell. In Japan, it’s known as forest bathing (shinrin-yoku), and literally translates to bathing in the forest atmosphere. It doesn’t require anything of you but to tap into the senses and soak it in …

This is your retreat, your words and your Tasmanian journey.


WORKSHOP ELEMENTS

Cold therapy

Ready to invigorate your life? Discover the power of cold-water therapy - delivering everything from reduced inflammation and better sleep through to increased immunity. Our morning submersions will have you feeling alive and energised.


Breathing

Take a deep breath. Isn’t it about time? Learn scientific breathing techniques that work wonders and can be tapped into for a lifetime to come. This breathwork is about boosting energy, dropping stress, recalibrating the nervous system, detoxing your system and so much more.


Nature

In Tasmania, we are gifted with nature in her most wild mood. We’ll immerse you in our island landscape to soak up its transformative ways. Bruny enjoys access to a stunning coastline that we’ll be exploring on foot together as well as rugged wilderness for those keen to venture further.


RETREAT INCLUSIONS

Guided by Wim Hof-trained Piet, discover the power of cold-water therapy and breathwork. We’ll go deep, exploring the benefits across three days of wilderness immersion. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never dipped a toe into the Wim Hof Method or you’re an enthusiast from way back. You’ll learn strategies and tools that will last long beyond your three days, under expert guidance. Expect to be challenged, reset and exhilarated. You'll also enjoy onsite yoga, author-led journaling, private walks, all chef-prepared meals and more.


WIM HOF METHOD WORKSHOPS

3 x cold water plunge

3 x breathwork/meditation


ALICE'S WORKSHOPS

Port Davey & the South West

The sequestered Port Davey region of southwest Tasmania is one of the most breathtaking landscapes on the planet, with wild rivers, quartzite peaks and extensive waterways

Whilst it’s on the edge of the earth, it is far from the end of the world. There’s an endless possibility of adventures to have, creatures to meet and tales to tell.

MEET THE TEAM:

Skipper/On Board Founder Pieter van der Woude

Pieter established On Board’s wilderness expeditions to share Tasmania’s far-flung coastal corners with those appreciative of a natural, wild world. Pieter has had a lifetime of experience on and under Tasmania’s waters. The former Tasmanian policeman worked in diving search and rescue before spending 25 years as an abalone diver. He has also employed his boat skills to load and unload ships even further south, for the Australian Antarctic Division. Pieter became familiar with southwest and east coast in his abalone days, before later deciding to invite visitors aboard to discover Tasmania’s playground of inlets, coves, rivers and bays aboard a sustainable, minimal-impact, floating boutique hotel.

Wim Hof-Trained Piet Blokker

Piet, a breathworker and cold therapy pro, has been trained by none other than Wim Hof himself! Dutch born, Piet now calls North West Tasmania home and lives by a flowing river perfect for cold water plunging. At the age of 50, Piet was challenged with Lymphoma and Rheumatoid Arthritis.

RETREAT ELEMENTS: JOURNALING/CONTEMPLATIVE WALKING

The power of hitting pen to paper. It’s not new. Leonardo da Vinci’s journals spanned some 5,000 pages. But the therapeutic wonders of reflective writing didn’t emerge until the 1960s, when a New York psychologist devised what he coined the Intensive Journal Method. On this walk, we won’t pen thousands of pages but we will invite self-discovery through the written word. Our Wild Wellness Journaling Method will cross our three foundational pillars.

We combine journal writing with optional contemplative walking. In a noisy world it’s rare to hear nature’s silence. But in this Tasmanian stillness, it’s possible to reconnect with you. Nature has a way of casting its healing spell. In Japan, it’s known as forest bathing (shinrin-yoku), and literally translates to bathing in the forest atmosphere. It doesn’t require anything of you but to tap into the senses and soak it in …

This is your retreat, your words and your Tasmanian journey.


WORKSHOP ELEMENTS

Cold therapy

Ready to invigorate your life? Discover the power of cold-water therapy - delivering everything from reduced inflammation and better sleep through to increased immunity. Our morning submersions will have you feeling alive and energised.


Breathing

Take a deep breath. Isn’t it about time? Learn scientific breathing techniques that work wonders and can be tapped into for a lifetime to come. This breathwork is about boosting energy, dropping stress, recalibrating the nervous system, detoxing your system and so much more.


Nature

In Tasmania, we are gifted with nature in her most wild mood. We’ll immerse you in our island landscape to soak up its transformative ways. The Cove enjoys access to a stunning coastline that we’ll be exploring on foot together.


RETREAT INCLUSIONS

Guided by Wim Hof-trained Piet, discover the power of cold-water therapy and breathwork. We’ll go deep, exploring the benefits across four days of wilderness immersion. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never dipped a toe into the Wim Hof Method or you’re an enthusiast from way back. You’ll learn strategies and tools that will last long beyond your four days, under expert guidance. Expect to be challenged, reset and exhilarated.


WIM HOF METHOD WORKSHOPS

2 x cold water plunge

3 x breathwork/meditation


ALICE'S WORKSHOPS

Day 1: Tonight, we meet our Wild Wellness journals. Around The Cove fire or looking out to Bass Strait, we begin our writing. Alice introduces you to Wild Wellness and its three pillars; connection, care and commitment. Of the ‘three C’s’ this evening the sun sets as we contemplate connection.

Day 2: It’s journal time. Today, we explore care, namely self/soul care and care for others. Do you care for yourself as you would a dear friend? We ask questions and we let answers flow.

Day 3: Our final morning is about commitment. Wellness doesn’t just happen in three days. It’s not about escaping life - your retreat is lifelong with Wild Wellness. We make our commitments in writing and ensure we have plenty of fun, nature and joy weaved in.

IS WILD WELLNESS FOR ME?
​

​​Feeling anxious or burnt out? Not connecting with your true self but too busy to notice? Wild Wellness is about hopping off life’s highway, examining limiting beliefs and tapping into what matters. This isn’t a few-day fix but a lasting recalibration. Reclaim control and author your own life.
WW is for you if:
  • your wellness is secondary to your to-do-list
  • limiting beliefs interrupt your flow
  • you want wellness to be a fun adventure
AF-WW is for you if:
  • you've tried cutting back on alcohol and falter
  • you're weary of waking weary
  • you've set drinking rules that are bent by cocktail hour
  • alcohol has become a headache ... literally
​You don't have to identify as a problem drinker to benefit from drinking less. So, whether you're keen for an alcohol break or you just want to spruce up your wellness regime, join our wild wellness movement.

The combination of Wim Hof plunges, meditative breathing and mindfulness reflections whilst immersed in one of the most beautiful landscapes on the planet was truly transformational."

The method is based on three core pillars: connection, care and commitment. Think invigorating cold dips, nourishing Tassie fare and fireside journal writing. You'll discover a blueprint to lasting wellness. We take the best of the traditional model and bring it into nature’s office.


WHAT IS THE WIM HOF METHOD?

It's a combination of breathing, cold therapy and commitment, offering a range of benefits. The power of the Wim Hof Method can help unlock a range of well-researched and documented health benefits including:

The power of hitting pen to paper. It’s not new. Leonardo da Vinci’s journals spanned some 5,000 pages. But the therapeutic wonders of reflective writing didn’t emerge until the 1960s, when a New York psychologist devised what he coined the Intensive Journal Method. On this walk, we won’t pen thousands of pages but we will invite self-discovery through the written word. Our Wild Wellness Journaling Method will cross our three foundational pillars.

We combine journal writing with optional contemplative walking. In a noisy world it’s rare to hear nature’s silence. But in this Tasmanian stillness, it’s possible to reconnect with you. Nature has a way of casting its healing spell. In Japan, it’s known as forest bathing (shinrin-yoku), and literally translates to bathing in the forest atmosphere. It doesn’t require anything of you but to tap into the senses and soak it in …

This is your retreat, your words and your Tasmanian journey.


WORKSHOP ELEMENTS

Cold therapy

Ready to invigorate your life? Discover the power of cold-water therapy - delivering everything from reduced inflammation and better sleep through to increased immunity. Our morning submersions will have you feeling alive and energised.


Breathing

Take a deep breath. Isn’t it about time? Learn scientific breathing techniques that work wonders and can be tapped into for a lifetime to come. This breathwork is about boosting energy, dropping stress, recalibrating the nervous system, detoxing your system and so much more.


Nature

In Tasmania, we are gifted with nature in her most wild mood. We’ll immerse you in our island landscape to soak up its transformative ways. The Cove enjoys access to a stunning coastline that we’ll be exploring on foot together.


RETREAT INCLUSIONS

Guided by Wim Hof-trained Piet, discover the power of cold-water therapy and breathwork. We’ll go deep, exploring the benefits across four days of wilderness immersion. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never dipped a toe into the Wim Hof Method or you’re an enthusiast from way back. You’ll learn strategies and tools that will last long beyond your four days, under expert guidance. Expect to be challenged, reset and exhilarated.


WIM HOF METHOD WORKSHOPS

2 x cold water plunge

3 x breathwork/meditation


ALICE'S WORKSHOPS

Day 1: Tonight, we meet our Wild Wellness journals. Around The Cove fire or looking out to Bass Strait, we begin our writing. Alice introduces you to Wild Wellness and its three pillars; connection, care and commitment. Of the ‘three C’s’ this evening the sun sets as we contemplate connection.

Day 2: It’s journal time. Today, we explore care, namely self/soul care and care for others. Do you care for yourself as you would a dear friend? We ask questions and we let answers flow.

Day 3: Our final morning is about commitment. Wellness doesn’t just happen in three days. It’s not about escaping life - your retreat is lifelong with Wild Wellness. We make our commitments in writing and ensure we have plenty of fun, nature and joy weaved in.

WELLNESS IN SOUTHWEST TASMANIA

What is Wild Wellness?

This blueprint for wellness is an Australian first; taking years of science-backed knowledge and condensing it into days. It’s a simple, wholesome wellness script. There is no better place on the planet to experience Wild Wellness than Tasmania.

Australia's Productivity Commission Report estimates mental illness is costing Australia $220 billion a year. Our burdened health system cannot cope. We believe there's another way ... a wilder way. No matter what your wellness goals might be, this method is about returning to you; listening in.

The method is based on three core pillars: connection, care and commitment. Think invigorating cold dips, silent walking beneath towering rainforest, nourishing Tassie fare and fireside journal writing. You'll discover a blueprint to lasting wellness featuring insights from Director of East Sydney Doctors, Dr. Chris Davis. We take the best of the traditional model and bring it into nature’s office.

What is the Wim Hof method?

It's a combination of breathing, cold therapy and commitment, offering a range of benefits. The power of the Wim Hof Method can help unlock a range of well-researched and documented health benefits including:

  • Rebalancing your immune system
  • Reducing inflammation
  • Improving focus, mood and cognitive function
  • Improving cardiovascular health
  • Balancing the body's stress response

What are the journalling workshops?

Day 1: Today, we meet our Wild Wellness journals. On Board, we begin our writing. Alice introduces you to Wild Wellness and its three pillars; connection, care and commitment. Of the ‘three C’s’ this evening the sun sets as we contemplate connection.

Day 2: It’s journal time. Today, we explore care, namely self/soul care and care for others. Do you care for yourself as you would a dear friend? We ask questions and we let answers flow.

Day 3: Our final day is about commitment. Wellness doesn’t just happen in three days. It’s not about escaping life - your On Board retreat is lifelong with Wild Wellness. We make our commitments in writing and ensure we have plenty of fun, nature and joy weaved in.


ODALISQUE III

Floating Luxury Lodge in the Wilderness

Hitting the water in January 2023, Odalisque III is brand new, providing boutique accommodation and an exclusive wilderness experience for just 12 guests. The 24m catamaran features six well-appointed cabins and spacious indoor and outdoor lounge areas with expansive ocean views.

Be Guided by Local Experts

Head into the wilderness with our all-star crew. From the skipper to the hand-picked expert guides, our talented and passionate team are the heart of this unforgettable experience. Their intimate knowledge of Tasmania will connect people to place. Plus, they’re funny and love to share a story (or three).

Port Davey & the South West

The sequestered Port Davey region of southwest Tasmania is one of the most breathtaking landscapes on the planet, with wild rivers, quartzite peaks and extensive waterways

Whilst it’s on the edge of the earth, it is far from the end of the world. There’s an endless possibility of adventures to have, creatures to meet and tales to tell.

Food & Drink

Meals are an indulgent culinary experience made from fresh seasonal Tasmanian produce. Our specialist chefs have been borrowed from some of Hobart’s top restaurants. Expect perfect picnics, freshly-baked cookies pulled from the oven just as hungry hikers return, and flavoursome feasts in what is quite possibly the most remote restaurant in Tasmania. Choose from a splendid selection of non-alcoholic offerings. Drink in hand, sink into a soft lounge and take in the everchanging view.


MEET THE TEAM:

Skipper/On Board Founder Pieter van der Woude

Pieter established On Board’s wilderness expeditions to share Tasmania’s far-flung coastal corners with those appreciative of a natural, wild world. Pieter has had a lifetime of experience on and under Tasmania’s waters. The former Tasmanian policeman worked in diving search and rescue before spending 25 years as an abalone diver. He has also employed his boat skills to load and unload ships even further south, for the Australian Antarctic Division. Pieter became familiar with southwest and east coast in his abalone days, before later deciding to invite visitors aboard to discover Tasmania’s playground of inlets, coves, rivers and bays aboard a sustainable, minimal-impact, floating boutique hotel.

Wim Hof-Trained Piet Blokker

Piet, a breathworker and cold therapy pro, has been trained by none other than Wim Hof himself! Dutch born, Piet now calls North West Tasmania home and lives by a flowing river perfect for cold water plunging. At the age of 50, Piet was challenged with Lymphoma and Rheumatoid Arthritis. Realising he needed to take care of his health, he began learning about reflexology, energy healing and came across Wim Hof. It proved a life saving - his awakening process began and today Piet is enjoying life free from arthritis and cancer.

Journaling Facilitator/Wild Wellness founder Alice Hansen

Alice is a professional travel writer and author. As the founder of the Wild Wellness Method, she has cultivated relationships spanning 20+ years with experts across the wellness field. On her quest to seek answers for her own struggles, she has connected with medical experts, international thought leaders and tapped into decades of experience to formulate a proven blueprint. Writing is a key element and she’ll guide you through a journaling process tailored to your wellness journey.
