PlantQuest – A Vision Quest into Your True Nature
In late June 2025, we invite a small group of men into the wilderness of Sweden for a rare kind of journey:
A return to what is real, essential, and alive within you.
This is not an escape from life – it is a conscious stepping out, a sacred pause to reconnect with the ground beneath your feet, the fire in your heart, and the strength of your spirit.
No shortcuts - Just You
Just you, the forest, the silence – and the deep guidance of ancient traditions: fasting, sweat lodge, solo time under the open sky, honest conversations, and the power of shared presence.
You choose how deep you want to go.
Some men stay for three days, others for the full ten days.
Each path is unique – and honored.
I will be there to support you – with experience, clarity, and an open heart – as will the land itself, patiently waiting for you to remember who you are beneath all the roles and expectations.
Nature heals her children – if we are willing to surrender to her.
And in doing so, we rediscover our roots, our direction, and the quiet strength that can lead ourselves and others through a changing world.
If you feel something stirring within you – even if you can't yet name it – this journey might be for you.

The Oak Path - A Journey of Grounded Transformation
The Oak Path is not all about adding more layers of knowledge or spiritual techniques.
It is about remembering.
Remembering the ancient, grounded wisdom that lives within every man – the wisdom of standing tall like an oak, rooted in truth, resilient in the storms of life.
Over the course of a year, through four elemental retreats aligned with the natural cycles of solstices and equinoxes, you will be invited to reconnect with your essence:
Through nature, through ritual, through honest reflection and community.
No belief systems are required. No previous spiritual experience necessary.
Just a willingness to show up – with everything you are, and everything you are not.
This path is for men who know that the life they have built, is not the whole story.
For men ready to step beyond comfort, beyond certainty – into a deeper, freer way of being.
The Oak Path is an invitation to remember your true nature – and to walk it, with strength, dignity, and an open heart.
“The greatest challenge in connecting with plants is to get out of our own way”.

About Stephan – Your Guide on this Journey
Working with me is not about fixing who you are – it’s about remembering what has always been true inside you.
Whether you are facing a turning point in life, carrying old burdens that no longer belong to you, or searching for a deeper sense of meaning, I offer a grounded, honest space where real transformation can unfold.
Together, we work with the body, the heart, your ancestral roots, and the living spirit of nature – to build a vision for your life that is clear, alive, and deeply connected.
A vision inspired by one of my oldest teachers: the Oak – standing strong, rooted in truth, growing patiently toward the light.
My role is to walk beside you.
To support you in reconnecting with your own body’s intelligence, your intuition, your place in the web of life.
To help you navigate the emotional landscapes and challenges that arise – not by escaping them, but by meeting them with presence, courage, and compassion.
Through this, you can step into your own natural strength and grounded masculinity – living a life of greater clarity, depth, and purpose.
I look forward to walking with you – as you rediscover your own essence and bring your true light into the world.

Closing online Circle
Medicine is a gift - I does’t come from me — it flows through me, from the Earth, from Spirit, and from the lineage of teachings I walk with. To hold space for others — to prepare, to guide, to follow up, to tend the fire and the soul — takes time, energy, and devotion.
Therefore, I state suggested exchanges — not as a price tag, but as a way of honoring the time, energy, and resources it takes to sustain this work.
This is the principle of sacred reciprocity — where giving and receiving are part of the same circle. Where we all meet in sincerity, trust, and mutual respect.
