I barely recognize that naive fool, thinking he understood the world.

Actually, being in Iraq might have been the only time that I felt somewhat healthy. Mainly because I had a purpose and a tribe around me. Not the mini energy drinks, pre-workout, MREs, protein shakes, and night missions.

Water is so much more than H2O. Regenerative practices should also include water since there is an essential cycle that water must go through in order to become alive again.

It never ceases to amaze me how someone's subconscious always finds a way to convey the inner workings of the mind, body, and spirit.

In a fast paced world, it can be difficult to focus the senses on the subtle signals being displayed.

Fear sells. Almost as well as s*x does.

Fear has been used as a tactic in both the conventional and alternative realms.

Your body and mind cannot heal under a Fear state.

Nature will not allow it.

We strive to bring you the information and knowledge which will dissolve the Fear lurking in the background.

Individuals can accomplish certain tasks better than others. If your neighbor can build a table better than you, and they are willing to help you out, then it makes sense to outsource that job to them while you focus on other tasks. You can then offer to help someone else with a task that you excel....

You have opposable thumbs. You are bipedal. You are an animal.

Remember to act according to nature's design.

As humans, we are designed to move in a multitude of ways.

Explore movement through play. Then move with purpose. Stop teaching your body to be so inefficient.

Build, climb, carry, throw, fight, jump, roll, flip, swim, skip, dance, etc.

I question almost everything in life. I'll admit that I promote blackout curtains and making a sleep sanctuary but I'm not so sure it is the ideal scenario for restful sleep if we are isolated.

Many other cultures continue to sleep as a collective. Since we are tribal by nature, this makes a lot of sense on a security level at least.

Sleeping in solitary confinement may have some unexplored consequences.

I think at the very least we should have a pet around who can act as a sentinel since they are more sensitive to the environment. Research has shown that the sound of a dog snoring allows our brain to drop into deeper stages of sleep since there must be no danger or threats around.

Artificial light is still a new technology. We take its impact lightly, pun intended.

Cortisol is stimulated by blue light and when that blue light is not matched by its wavelength pals, it will be almost impossible to shut off the stress response.

Think fatigue and insomnia.

Melatonin is our darkness sensor, not the sleep hormone. Many metabolic actions such as repair and growth operate mainly during the nighttime.

Start avoiding junk light at all costs. Especially, if you are already avoiding junk food.

When you lack adequate sleep, your brain is starving for energy so will push you toward poor food choices. Gonna be hard to fight those temptations.

First, negate the artificial light exposure or wear blue blockers after sunset so that your nervous system can figure out the time of day and male sense of the adenosine and melatonin signals.

You may be surprised what an ideal sleep environment looks like so stay tuned for a follow up post.
