What is Of Life and Wild?
Philosophy, lifestyle, value system...
It's hard to pin down what "Of Life and Wild" is truly meant to be. What I can say is that this world offers us unique problems in both a large variety and a large abundance. I suppose, at the end of the day, Of Life and Wild is the pursuit of addressing these problems through natural means.
The Mission
As a philosophy, Of Life and Wild is about returning to humanity's original mental context. Even in our modern world (especially in our modern world) it is useful to understand who we are, where we come from, and the sort of life, lifestyle, society, struggles, and blessings we were originally meant to experience as well as the meaning, purpose, and narratives that we would glean from this context.
​
As a lifestyle, Of Life and Wild tries to inform, guide, and empower those who are interested in returning to the wilder ways. There is health and vitality to be found in nature, and it's important that we bring those natural ways back into the modern world. It could be in the form of diet, community, spirituality, exercise, hobbies, or a dozen other things, but it must be pursued if we are to thrive in the world we live in.
​
As a value system, Of Life and Wild learns the lessons which nature teaches and distills them into practical, actionable, holistic guidelines, aims, and means to live accordingly; even in the technological, often disconnected environments so many of us find ourselves in.
