When reading the words \u201cwild\u201d and \u201crewilding,\u201d many people automatically think of forests, lush nature, wild, remote and inhospitable places<\/strong>, caveman images and Tarzans. The word \u201cwild\u201d sometimes has a somewhat Hollywood-esque and even pejorative connotation<\/strong>: primitive, uncivilized, uneducated, cruel, inhuman…<\/p>\n

I prefer to think of wild<\/strong> in terms of \u201cuncontrolled by others,\u201d \u201cundomesticated,\u201d and \u201cnot dominated.\u201d A thing wild is something in its natural and pure state<\/strong>, without the intervention of human hands. Imagine for a moment how the hunter-gatherer ancestors lived. They faced considerable dangers every day, but they were free<\/strong>. Today we also face dangers – different dangers, but dangers nonetheless. Being alive involves being exposed to all kinds of dangerous situations in itself. The difference is that now we are not free<\/strong>. We might have the illusion of being free, but we are not. We are well tamed, dominated, and controlled by society, taboos, industry, fashion, media, social networks, and maybe, most of all, by our own beliefs.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rewilding is about leaving behind the unconsciously self-imposed limits of our body and our spirit.<\/p>\n

Today is one of those gray days when the desire to cross the doors of my house is weak. This happens to all of us from time to time. But in no case should this be an excuse to be embedded in the couch watching television or wandering aimlessly through the Internet. Let me introduce you to a less domesticated and more rewilding lifestyle, and show you that being wild and untamed is about a state of mind<\/strong>. You don\u2019t need to go to a jungle, you can start rewilding here and now, in your own house.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have already discussed this issue on rewilding drum<\/strong><\/span> (check\u00a0here<\/a>). It is very important to release the foot of the its \u201cshoe prison.\u201d At least at home, allow yourself that luxury.<\/p>\n

2<\/strong><\/span> Do not use toxic products throughout the day<\/strong><\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
