planning
This is the planning phase of the journey.
Planning is important as it tries to eliminate as much unknowns as possible in the journey to create a nice balance between knowns and unknowns for the whole group.
"Failing to plan is planning to fail" - Benjamin Franklin
people
There are several attributes for people who want to partipate in this journey to make it nice for everyone.
- flexible and chill
- good conversationalist
- introspective
One can send out invitation to people they know that might fit the profiles to start the organizing a walk-talk-meditate
journey.
size
The ideal size would be between 8 to 10 people. The max would be 12. Smaller size would work too but the conversation might stall after a few days.
There could a buffer to add one more person because someone else might cancel at the last minute.
duration
The ideal duration would be between 5 to 7 days. The vibe of the group slowly gets built up in the initial days and by the mid point to the end that's when people develop a harmonizing group energy.
Longer and shorter duration might work too depending on the size of the group.
The duration can be very fluid but it is important to set a concrete days and plan it out based on that duration.
NOTE: one can always arrive early and leave latter to take in the new environment by themselves or with others.
