Spring Rewilding: What if the root cause is . . .
In this rejuvenating spring episode, we dive into the fundamentals of human health through the lens of rewilding and seasonal living. As nature awakens from winter, discover how to align with spring's rhythms for optimal wellbeing.
Join me as I share my barefoot forest adventures and wild food foraging experiences, including patches of ramps, nettles, and horsetail. I explain why these spring ephemerals aren't just delicious but packed with nutrients our bodies need during this season.
We revisit the 7 pillars for human health—sun, water, air, food, movement, connection, and purpose—exploring how spring strengthens each one. I share why collecting wild spring water has become a ritual in my life, explaining the differences between living, mineral-rich spring water and the processed water most of us consume.
Learn why spring's diuretic plants like horsetail aren't depleting your minerals, but supporting your body's detoxification while replenishing essential nutrients. I explain how increased urination through plant diuretics helps flush metabolic waste and reduce inflammation.
I also dive into earthing—direct contact with the ground—and share how the earth's free electrons help neutralize harmful reactive oxygen species. Discover why 30 minutes of barefoot connection daily can improve sleep, accelerate healing, and reduce oxidative stress.
Throughout the episode, I emphasize that rewilding isn't about perfection but reconnecting with our natural state through simple practices. The beauty of seasonal living is that nature provides exactly what we need—from astringent plants that heal tissues to pungent ones that boost circulation.
Whether you're new to rewilding or deepening your connection with nature, this episode offers practical insights and actionable steps. By understanding that many health issues stem from our disconnection from nature, we can address root causes rather than just symptoms.
Join me in exploring how spring's offerings can help us return to a more natural, vibrant state—one wild food, barefoot step, and deep breath at a time.
