Rewilding

It was almost by accident when I first learned about the power of wool to not only increase vitality but to up the comfort level of winter. It was at a time (late 1990s) I was well aware the outdoor community was adopting synthetics as the new best thing to stay warm. I too had […]

A few years ago, I had a hypothesis that heating the house at night was a waste of time and energy and seemed like a poor design. I seemed to sleep better when not heating the air, so I piled all the blankets I could find to stay warm. What didn’t make sense is, I

Kickin off the new year with a bang…I had an awesome interview on Divine Superconductor Radio with Matt Blackburn about my upcoming book, The Rewilder’s Guide to Camping and Backpacking.

My own story on how I discovered paleo… I got sick from not following Paleo/Ancestral. I was vegan for 20 years with constantly declining health thinking I had the right diet, tried every diet/modality I could find, spent thousands of dollars and lived a compromised life, until I discovered paleo/primal.
