In the realm of artificial intelligence—especially when it concerns our Asclepiads, which engage with human emotions and mental health—we often encounter skepticism. It’s a valid concern: how can an AI, incapable of experiencing emotions itself, effectively support users on their emotional journeys? This is precisely why we’ve coined the term Maiapathy, named in honour of our first AI Asclepiad, Maia (short for ‘My Asclepian Intelligent Assistant’).

Before downloading the Asclepiad app and pouring your heart out, it’s crucial to understand the unique role your Asclepiad can play for you, and also what it cannot do. While the Asclepiad embodies aspects of a therapist, mentor, and companion, it occupies a distinct space that complements, rather than replaces, these traditional roles.

Odyssey

A personalised three‑day wild‑camping Odyssey where small matched cohorts reconnect with nature and themselves, co‑creating their journey with Asclepiad facilitators and our AI‑powered app.
A 3-day wild camping Odyssey
As part of our ‘Explain It Like I’m…’ series, this article unpacks one of the core strengths of our Odyssey concept: the ability to curate deeply resonant experiences by understanding you—not just your preferences, but your purpose, timing, and needs. From the reflective phase in the Asclepiad app to shared wild‑camping in remote places, Maia doesn’t just match people to events. She choreographs a shared journey. Here’s how that process makes sense depending on where you’re at.

Our inaugural Odyssey heads north to Scotland. We chose this country because it uniquely combines accessible wilderness with a culture that welcomes simple living. In the Highlands and on the coasts you can still find places where moorland and mountains roll without a building in sight, white sand beaches meet the cold sea, and heather‑covered hills ring with nothing but the wind. At the same time, trains and ferries link these landscapes to cities, so you can leave a busy life behind in the morning and be in the wild before nightfall.

In a crowded world of wellness retreats, it’s easy to feel like you’re being offered a product off the shelf: a fixed location, templated schedule, and generic promise of improved wellbeing. If you’ve left one of those retreats feeling it didn’t quite land—people not your people, practices not meeting you where you are—you’re not alone. We created the Odyssey to offer something different: a living, breathing human experience tailored to who you really are, with small matched cohorts, mobile van‑based camps in remote wild‑camping locations, and programmes designed around your needs and aspirations.

When you join an Odyssey, you’re not paying a fee up front for a pre‑packaged retreat. Instead, you’re making a contribution toward a shared experience. We use our own digital token, AsclepiCoin, to make these contributions simple and anonymous.

Our Odysseys aren’t typical retreats. They’re living, breathing experiences where small cohorts camp in remote wild places, share meals and stories, and co‑create their journey. To help bring these experiences to life, we invite applications from people who want to serve as Asclepiad facilitators—participants with a special role in guiding the circle.
