Does Santiago Therapy work?

Updated: Jul 3, 2021

You will undoubtedly be asked one day why you want to go walking on the Saint-James way.

The motivations are very diverse and varied from one person to another: desire for freedom, adventure, discovery, to regain control over one's life etc ... but it is often difficult to say at the precise moment when the you are asked this basic question, why you finally decided to take your pilgrim's sticks.


To walk the Saint-James way, is not in my opinion just a simple hike, it is a real initiatory journey, an interior adventure which transforms us little by little, to discover a better version of ourselves.


More than a hike, it is a journey towards oneself that goes well beyond the destination that we had initially set ourselves. Taking the paths of Saint-Jacques is a long apprenticeship, it is continuous training, as I am used to saying, which for some people lasts a lifetime.


The Saint-James way is not therefore limited to the simple fact of walking from point A to point B. It begins well before departure and continues well after arrival. After a certain time, the path remains anchored in you: we do not follow it, it is he who follows us, we do not do it, it is he who does not make us after step.


It is also the point of view of the French explorer Théodore Monod who said that “travel is a slow teacher !! ". It is so well said, but much more than a teaching, the Saint-James way is a real therapy, which one can describe here as a set of processes of personal transformation and of key ideas which are articulated to each other for a better being. It is a curative or preventive method which remains a means like any other to develop one's humanity and one's self-confidence.
