Description
In this episode, I go off-grid with Mansal Denton, the founder of Sacred Hunting: an intentional hunter who combines plant medicines and indigenous practices into each hunt. So many of us have become disconnected from what we consume, becoming all-too-accustomed to buying sterile cuts of meat in plastic, often from questionable sources. My recent voyage with Mansal reclaimed the innate human desire and necessity to live from the earth and interact with life and death with intention and respect. I reflect on my four-day ceremonial hunt and the breadth of emotions, judgments, and fears I faced when killing and skinning a wild boar. Mansal Denton’s sacred and sensitive vision for hunting, framed by his six-year training with an indigenous Muskogee (Creek) medicine man, shreds any preconceived judgment that hunting is an egotistical expression of toxic masculinity. After experiencing his unique mastery of the field firsthand, I’ve witnessed the care and compassion he has for the land, its creatures, and humanity. 10:35 — Mansal’s Background, Rock Bottom and Prison Sentence Time spent in prison Ethnic-divisions in prison Restrictions post-sentence My own sports hunting experiences growing up 33:59 — Motivations to Start Hunting Desire to get closer to his food Drive to express his aggression authentically Thinking and consciously embodying masculinity Reflecting on his first kill Ayahuasca lessons and healing 51:48 — Disconnect Between Eating Meat and Killing It Experiences being vegetarian Connection to the natural life cycle Hierarchy of suffering in the wild vs. regenerative farming Creatures embodying their mission in the ecosystem DMT energetic release at death Seeking connection to plants and animals 1:20:33 — Dealing with Animosity Sports hunting and the perceived lack of consciousness Shadow and ego in the hunting community Indigenous hunting vs. Western hunting Analyzing hierarchy in the ecosystem 1:34:38 — Training with Indigenous Cultures How a Muskogee (Creek) medicine man gave him sacred hunting tools Relationship with rattlesnakes Sacred ceremonies during intentional hunting Why he uses psychedelics on a hunt Reconciling with the “way things are” after a kill Upleveling consciousness on a hunt 01:59:10 — The Future of Sacred Hunting Democratizing sacred hunting practices Plans to partner with land Collaborating with women Reaction from traditional hunting groups Conservation efforts within the hunting community More about this episode.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them? Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities? Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated? EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to. In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF. By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
