Rewilding | Free Book
Reconnect with your wild essence as you awaken your innate bond
with the natural world
“Rewilding is a return to our essential nature. It is an attempt
to reclaim something of what we were before we used words like
‘civilized’ to define ourselves.” —Micah Mortali
In his long-awaited book Rewilding, Kripalu
director Micah Mortali brings together yoga, mindfulness, wilderness
training, and ancestral skills to create a unique guide for
reigniting your primal energy—your undomesticated true self—and
deepening your connection with the living earth.
For
hundreds of thousands of years, humans lived intimately with the
earth. We were in the wild and of the wild. Today, we live mostly
urban lives—and our vital wildness has gone dormant. As a result,
we’re more isolated, unhealthy, anxious, and depressed than ever,
and our planet has suffered alongside us.
With
Rewilding, Mortali invites us to shed the effects of
over-civilization and explore an inner wisdom that is primal,
ancient, and profound. Whether you live in the middle of a city or
alongside the woods, the insights and practices on these pages will
bring you home to your wild, wise, and alive self.
Highlights
include:
• Practice-rich content—mindfulness exercises,
guided meditations, yoga and pranayama, inward sensing,
forest bathing, and much more
• The “life-force
deficit”—explore how our separation from nature affects us
physiologically and spiritually
• Ancestral skills—such as
tracking, foraging, building fires, and finding shelter
•
Develop a sense of calm, clarity, connection, and confidence in both
your daily life and the great outdoors
• What you can learn
from nature’s teachers—lessons from mountains, rivers, trees, and
our animal kin
• Rewild in the wild—guidelines around safety,
preparedness, appropriate gear, and packing lists
• A mindful
rewilding flow—put everything together in an immersive, step-by-step
rewilding experience
• Awaken your authentic spiritual
connection with the natural world as you come home to your true
self
• Understand the relationship between our health and the
health of our planet—and how we can begin to heal both
Part
celebration of the natural world, part spiritual memoir, and part
how-to guide, Rewilding is a must-read for anyone who wants
to embrace their wild nature and essential place in the living
earth.
