  • Today we discuss how to predict the weather so that you can stay out longer and be prepared for everything Gaia throws in your next wilderness adventure. We all know that meteorologists are notoriously wrong with their predictions. It just so happens the process of becoming your own weather person is a great way to learn and connect with your local landscape. In this episode, we discuss what barometric pressure is and how to read cloud cover and changing winds. I also share how a sit spot can assist in the process of remembering how to use intuition to predict changes in weather. I introduce the concept of the primal self and how to trust this part of ourselves to not only predict the weather but control our body's temperature. I finish by debunking some old wives' tales and sharing some that I think are worth remembering.Please download, subscribe, rate, and review this episode so that others can find it.SHOW RESOURCES:Tom Brown Jr.'s Tracker SchoolBook: The Earth Has a Soul by Carl JungBook: The Dairy Farmers Guide to the Universe: Jung and Ecopsychology by Dennis MerrittBioptimizers.com/rewildmybio *And use the code 'rewildmybio' at checkout to receive 10% offCONNECT W/ SHAWNwww.rewildmybio.comSign up for the Rewild My Bio Newsletter by visiting the website hereInstagram: @rewildmybioTelegram: /rewildmybioYouTube: Rewild My BioLinkedIn: @shawnsladeHave questions, comments, or want to request a guest?

  • Today we discuss all things merino wool. What is it? And why you shouldn’t head into the back country or next afternoon hike without it. And perhaps most importantly why you should leave the cotton and synthetics for the gym, garden, or a night on the town when you are not planning to immerse yourself in the elements for long periods of time. I also share my experience wearing merino wool during my 96 hour vision quest in freezing temperatures and how I layered this amazing fabric to stay dry and warm. When it comes to connecting with nature through nature immersion, whether you are a bird watcher, a hunter, or new to experiencing the outdoors, having the right clothing can make a big difference in your ability to stay out and be one with the elements.Please download, subscribe, rate, and review this episode so that others can find it. TOPICS DISCUSSED:Importance of being comfortable when connecting with nature; ancestral importance of clothing and modern-day clothing or fashion industry problems; EMF protection clothing from Get Lambs; Product giveaway from Bioptimizers; my experience during a vision quest wearing merino wool and hunting in merino wool; the life of a merino sheep and sustainability of merino wool; Benefits of merino wool - No smell and anti-bacterial, Moisture-wicking properties, Breathability, Insulating, UV protective, No sound, Soft and wrinkle-resistant; Product review of merino wool clothing I swear by.SHOW RESOURCES:Get Lambs EMF Protection ClothingBioptimizers.com/rewildmybio *And use the code 'rewildmybio' at checkout to receive 10% offFirst Lite - Merino wool hunting systemsSmart Wool - Pioneers in modern merino wool clothing.

  • Hello and thanks for joining. It's been a while since I have posted an episode. The reason for this episode is to share my observations from attending a scientific debate and soaking in the vibe of the peaceful protests in Ottawa Canada this past weekend. I am breaking a personal vow of silence to post this episode as I feel now is time for all Canadians to break their silence if they also oppose the mandates, vaccine passports, and divisive politics. I also discuss the need for ecopsychology as a theoretical framework to address the individual and cultural healing Canadians and Canada are in need of. I step into the role of cultural ethnographer and provide context for the Instagram lives I posted as well as share my observatory notes from the weekend. I cover the size of the protest, my interactions with locals, what I did, how the protestors were blocked in, and what the police presence was like. I share stories from the scientific debate turned scientific conference as Dr. Theresa Tam did not show up. Dr. Paul Alexander (Ph.D. - Clinical Epidemiology), Dr. Roger Hodkinson (MD), and Dr. Byram Bridle (Ph.D. - Viral Immunologist) took to the microphone while alternative press captured the two-hour presentation with questions and answer period afterward. The episode finishes with a shift to the question as to what is next as democracy and body sovereignty in Canada hang in the balance.

  • It's been a while since I have recorded a podcast. To be honest I have been scared to break my silence for fear of repercussions... that said, I told myself in March 2020 that when the vaccine passport comes (as I knew it would) I would have to break my silence. This episode is me doing just that, but before I get into the weeds of the day, I discuss how I have been enjoying being immersed in building my house on the 30 acres of land I am stewarding in the Canadian shield. I have also been enjoying laying the foundation for one of Canada's best nature connection schools through my Ph.D. research. I give a brief update of these projects before diving into the vaccine passport and all things government silliness here in Canada. Speaking of government silliness how about the 2021 Canadian election? Nothing could be more alarming than the Canadian Prime Ministers' campaign speech and JT's striking resemblance to Hitler's speeches of the 1930s. Unfortunately, no amount of logic or rational thinking will help the masses step back from the ledge... that said I do my best and if nothing more get some much needed things off my chest.

  • Our guest today is the wild and wonderful Richard Canfield, co-host of the Life Without Bay Street Podcast and an Infinite Banking Practitioner with the Nelson Nash Institute. Richard passionately teaches and implements the infinite banking process with his clients across Canada. In this episode, we discuss how the current regime of money and banking is oppressive and hierarchal and often makes bank owners wealthy and keeps the rest of us in debt. We then discuss the process and tool of the infinite banking concept and how infinite banking mirrors principles of permaculture. We then discuss transitioning out of the rat race and into the role of bank owner of your own financial empire. If you want to create the foundation for good health then having control over your financial life is important. Or if you just want to "stick it to the man" while gaining the upper hand and financial freedom from debt slavery, then this episode is for you!Please download, subscribe, rate, and review this episode so that others can find it.TOPICS DISCUSSED:SHOW RESOURCES:Book: Becoming Your Own Banker: Unlock the Infinite Banking Concept By R.

  • Our wild and wonderful guest is Susan Greer. Susan is the executive director of the Natural Burial Association of Ontario. She's is passionate about launching natural burial grounds all over Ontario. the Natural Burial Association builds awareness of natural burial options, supports local advocacy groups, and gently lets people know that cremation isn't as eco-friendly as they might think. So if you're mortal, this episode might interest you. In this episode, we discuss the environmental destruction caused by conventional practices, how a natural burial is for anyone and honours any faith-based traditions, how nature contact with these designated natural burial sites can assist in the grieving process, cost-saving compared to conventional options, and how a natural burial will help you regenerate soil long after your soul passes on to the next part of your journey. We also discuss some red tape that the Ontario government recently put into law surrounding burial grounds and what you can do to help this amazingly successful and emerging grassroots movement in your neck of the woods.

  • Mansal Denton, aka "Little Beaver" is the founder of Sacred Hunting, host of the Mansal Denton Podcast, and the subject of an upcoming documentary "Below The Drop" exploring our relationship to life and death through hunting. Shawn and Richard converse with Mansal on hunting as a rite of passage and a means of connecting with nature and spirit. Mansal shares his biography and how in one early chapter of his life he felt insecure and chased a woman to Europe, which led him to prison. Struggling with shame and confusion of what it meant to be a man, he found his calling within the sacred art of hunting. He now desires to share this practice with more men and does so through the group hunt he facilitates over at www.sacredhunting.com. Please reach out and connect with Mansal if you are interested in being a participant in one of his upcoming hunts. There is a link to an upcoming shed hunt in Montanna Mansal is hosting and linked in the show notes. We define what sacred hunting is, the importance of setting intentions, how sacred hunting differs from the majority of hunting that takes a sportsman or conservation approach. We discuss modern societies' relationship with life and death, rites of passage, what a healthy and united masculine and feminine energy looks like, and making hunting a spiritual practice and way to connect us with our ancestors while communing with local ecologies in a symbiotic and mutually beneficial way.

    TOPICS DISCUSSED:What is sacred hunting?

  • This past week I went from meat poor, to very rich. In this episode of Rewild My Bio I tell my story of how I recently secured venison for my freezer via roadkill. I go over a check list of safety precautions you can take when processing roadkill for consumption. Stop by the show notes at rewildmybio.com/roadkill for a transcript of things to consider so that you can put food on your table and make the best out of an unfortunate situation. If you found this episode helpful please rate and review the podcast on the platform of your choice. This helps me make the podcast better and helps others find the show. Stay Wild! Topics Discussed:Suspending judgment and staying open to the idea of consuming roadkill; Roadkill carpaccio; Gross vs. good food; Know the law; safe collection and stopping to breathe and connect; Use your senses to assess for freshness to ensure safe consumption; Assess for external and internal damage; Look out for tainted meat, bugs, and maggots; Have your bug out bag with supplies; Choose the gutless method if you suspect major internal organ trauma; Blessing and thanking your animal; Processing and butchering; Cooking.Tips for procuring meat from a roadkill whitetail deer Safe collection: Take a breath and be aware of the surroundings and be mindful of traffic. Know the law: Some states and provinces require tags and in others, it is illegal to collect roadkill or possess any dead wild animal. Look into your local regulations. Freshness: Only take roadkill that you can deem is fresh enough for safe consumption. The climate you find the animal in will determine what senses will be important to pay attention to. Use all your senses (including your intuition or sixth sense). You definitely want to use your eyes and nose. Check to see if the animal’s eyes are clear, if milky or cloudy the animal has been dead for a while. Check the elasticity of the skin, it should be able to pull away from the muscle and the animal should not be in full rigor mortis though some stiffness should be expected after a few hours or if the animal has been sitting out all night. Do not take meat that is covered in bugs or maggots. Assess for external and internal damage: Be aware of whether there was internal damage and if the stomach acid and contents leaked as this could spoil and/or taint the meat. Look for road rash and cut away any meat that has coagulated blood or bone fragments. Be careful not to cut yourself on the sharp bone. Be prepared: Have your bug out bag ready by having a bag full of knives, rubber gloves, game bags, and even having a cooler in your vehicle to collect small game or store meat that has been cut off of animals that couldn’t be 100% salvaged. If you are on foot, a backpack with knives and game bags is ideal and if you find a larger animal like a deer hopefully you can phone a friend for help. Processing and Butchering: If you do not know the time of death it is best to try to process the meat as soon as possible so to get it cooled. It is best that you remove the animal from the side of the road for processing and do it in a safe way that is respectful to non-hunters. Choose the gutless method if you suspect a lot of internal damage otherwise continue to gut as normal for whitetail deer. Impact damage will determine how you go about butchering the animal for your freezer. The MeatEater Fish and Game Cookbook is a great resource for butchering big and small game. Thanking and blessing the animal: With procuring any wild foods it is important to pay respect and honour the plant, animal, and place you are harvesting from. If you are a hunter and have a usual gratitude practice for when you kill an animal, it seems appropriate to honour your roadkill in the same fashion. An attitude of gratitude helps us stay open to receiving the many gifts of Mother Earth and is a noble step in helping the animal transition to the spirit realm and onto your dinner plate. Cooking the animal: If you were unsure of how long the animal was dead for, or if you have any indication that the meat was on the verge of spoilage be sure to cook your roadkill thoroughly. When in doubt throw it out. Things can change from the time of processing to the table. Maybe your excitement for finding a deer overshadowed your better judgement. If you feel that the meat is not safe to consume or not fresh properly dispose of it.Resources:Book for recipes and butchering help: MeatEater Fish and Game CookbookWebsite: Keeping a dead animal in OntarioCONNECT W/ SHAWNwww.rewildmybio.comSign up for the Rewild My Bio Newsletter by visiting the website hereInstagram: @rewildmybioTelegram: /rewildmybioLinkedIn: @shawnsladeClubhouse: @shawnsladeHave questions, comments, or want to request a guest?

  • What's up you wild and wonderful people! Today's episode is fully inspired by listener Q&A and feedback that I have received as of late. I enjoyed putting this one together and it is my hope that by doing more solo casts I can share what is exciting in my world of nature connection and rewilding. In today's episode I do just that, focus on the good things in my life, and as Henry David Thoreau "all good things are wild and free". Some of the good and exciting stuff happening in my life is up North on the LAND I am stewarding in the Canadian Shield. This year I am looking at building a cabin, outdoor bath, and sauna, as well as cutting trails, creating a bushcraft camp in the woods, and regenerating hardwoods that were forested by the previous owner of the property. Lots of opportunities to mind my own business and work with my hands! I discuss some of the rewilding practices I am focused on for the coming months and how I am getting my daily dose of nearby nature for positive mental health. I then get into the importance of preparation given the uncertain times we still find ourselves in. I discuss how my breathwork practice and saving seeds are two important areas to consider when preparing for what nature may throw at you. I answer listener and online questions (more so accusations or assumptions) about me seeming to have set up shop in the "anti-masker" camp, which sparks a whole conversation on finding and defining truth. I end this topic with some positive notes about deleting Twitter, keeping it sunny online, supporting local and small businesses, and how to best avoid polarization and walk in truth. I finish off this episode by going over a recommendation from some research I have been studying on how to get the most out of nature connection through regulating our emotions and being mindful in nature.Resources:Book: Walden by Henry David ThoreauSeed Retailer: William Dam SeedsWebsite: JP SearsBook: Breath by James NestorButeyko Breathing Online CoursesOrganization: Alpha CanadaPrevious Episode: Ep. #3 Returning to the LAND w/ Dr. Richard VuksinicPrevious Episode: Ep. #17 Rewire Your Bio w.

  • Today my wild and wonderful guest is Colin Jackson. If you are looking for an online health coach to kickstart your 2021 or you want to join Colin's weekly online breathing classes please contact him directly. In his return to the podcast, Colin (Instagram @colindjacks) shares his 2020 journey and discusses what it was like expanding his fitness facility in early 2020, then being locked down and deemed nonessential, and evolving his business into the online world. If you or someone you know had to say goodbye to something you loved in 2020 this episode is definitely worth a listen. My guest shares how having a solid footing in his connection with God/Creator, tools like psilocybin mushrooms, and access to some remote backcountry wilderness afforded Colin the ability to face his fears, surrender, and accept some hard truths in 2020. In the process, he was able to get more clear on what he is and that he is much bigger than Colin the health coach, husband, and entrepreneur. We also discuss Colin's spiritual practices and cultural background as both Cree First Nation and as a "White" man of European descent, and how that has lead Colin to gain a deeper and nuanced understanding of the illusion of separation that is highly palpable as we start 2021. His story may be helpful for those that see themselves as victims of top-down policy that impinge on basic rights and freedoms using the reclaiming of indigenous lands as a case for conversation. We finish the episode with Colin's dream for the Earth which is one focused on harmony. Enjoy the show!Please download, subscribe, rate, and review this episode to help others find it.

  • My Wild and Wonderful guest today is Drake Larsen of Three Ridges Ecological Farm. We are also joined with long time friend and contributor to the show Dr. Richard Vuksinic ND. In this episode, we take a laid-back and informal approach to a complex topic; the ever evolving world of Ecological Farming. This was a great episode to kick off a topic I believe has the power to not only feed humanity but heal the Earth and all living beings in the process.

    We hope to have Drake back to dive deeper into some of the topics we discuss and plenty of others as Drake has a wealth of knowledge and experience in all things rewilding and living in connection with the Earth.

    In short, we cover Drake’s fascinating biography and how nature immersion from a young age and shooting a banded goose lead way to a life of travel and adventure, conservation and regeneration, and most notably re-connection.

    Through reconnection, Drake has been afforded the opportunity to meet his wife Sara and create the best ecological farm in Canada, but also cultivate a greater sense of self and purpose in the process.

    Drake shares his knowledge on topics from carbon cycling, Silvopasture, the dark side of aspects of the vegan life way, views on carbon taxes, and how to raise animals to live their full biological expectation. Not to mention we discuss in depth how the lamb raised on his farm lived to make them taste so good. We close with Drakes's wildest dream for the Earth which centers around his “3R’s” - Reconnection, Resilience, and Regeneration.

  • Today’s guest is the wild and wonderful Richard Vuksinic. Richard is a Doctor of Naturopathic medicine and in my eyes he is actually living the dream... his dream that is! It is a story that reminds us that all things in nature come full circle. He and his wife Kristina run the Village Naturopathic Clinic. He is a friend that I am truly inspired by, not only from his connection and care for stewarding the land but also because he is a wealth of knowledge in all things holistic and alternative health. If you are thinking about buying land to rewild it, offer healing and workshops, or even to build your off grid or low environmental footprint home than you are going to love this episode! We hear all about Richards childhood Tom Sawyer days and his start to natural medicine. This is a special episode because it is the first of many we hope to do together and the start of some exciting upcoming projects we are working on, with a sole purpose of healing and helping the Earth and all the beings that call her home.

  • What does rewilding mean? Is it even possible to Rewild? One thing for sure is that there is no one way to rewild. Join me in the second part of the first episode as I lay down more of the ground work for the show and try to explain how I see rewilding as spectrum that we are all on, in our own way, when we connect with nature. In this episode I invite you to mindfully connect with nature or "rewild" for health and becoming the best you possible. I also discuss how this show is a self help and alternative health podcast through a rewilding lens and I also reiterate that the show is not a place for dogmatic beliefs or a part of any 'ism'. I give my definition of rewilding that spawns from the biophilia hypothesis and can be seen as a tool to help us reconnect with the wild parts of our body and soul for health and happiness. I discuss everything from a utopia for rewilders to the use of modern day health technologies that mimic nature (you know biohacking). We are living in wild times, and Mother Earth needs us to rewild our biology, and redefine our biography… Now! Topics discussed: Intro: reiterate points on rewilding and capitalism, paradox of rewilding; environmental rewilding definition, George Monbiot's rewilding as a tool for Environmentalist, Shawn's knowledge (or lack there of) on science and perspectives of climate change; Shawn presents human rewilding definition from rewild.com and wikipedia and breaks them down assumptions and questions; Shawn's definition of rewilding spawned from biophilia hypothesis and seen as a tool for good healing, words on rewilding of the mind/soul; What is domestication? What is Wild? A rewilder’s Utopica and modern day technology; Finding our wild edge; rewilding social institutions; Rewilding as a spectrum, look at spectrum for nutrition, hydration, breathing, moving, sleeping, thinking, feeling and interacting with others; life hack or rewildinng practice? What is a modern day rewilder? Using modern health technologies that mimic nature; What is biohacking? Is Rewilding the new healthist trend? Intersection of rewilding and biohacking; My experience with biohacking; paradox of biohacking school of thought; Shawn examines a few similarities and differences between biohacking and rewilding; human body is the most amazing technology and communication tool; Shawn’s definition of wild hacking distinguishes between unnatural aspects of biohacking and biohacking culture; Shawn’s hope for returning to a wild soul and help the EarthResources: Rewild.com, Article: A Manifesto For Rewilding the World, Book: Feral: Searching for Enchantment on the Frontiers of Rewilding by George Monbiot, Pub Med Article on Evolutionary MedicinePlease subscribe to the show and leave a 5 star rating if you have enjoyed this episode.AppleGoogleSpotifyStitcherConnect with Shawnwww.rewildmybio.com (so soon)Instagram: @rewildmybioFacebook: @rewildmybioTwitter: @shawnsladeLinkedIn: @shawnsladeSign up for the newsletter by visiting www.rewildmybio.comHave questions, comments, or want to request a guest?

  • We are discussing the wild and wonderful world of fermented food today on the Rewild My Bio podcast. A big part of my journey into rewilding stems from my passion for fermented foods. My passion for making sauerkraut and kombucha turned into a profession in 2015 when I co-founded Booch Organic Kombucha an Ontario craft kombucha brewery in London Ontario Canada. When I started my PhD it was to research the health benefits of fermented food, however my passion fermented into nature connection and the role bacteria play for not only human health but the health of the Earth. Join me in this episode as I go through parts of a lecture I delivered at the Guelph Organic Conference and Trade Show.

  • Join me in this episode as I share my research into the research question, "Do masks worn in the public able to stop the transmission of COVID-19"? I share my process for digging up systematic reviews and assess the weight for and against wearing masks in the public. I discuss what type of masks are out there and their pro's and con's. I describe how the N95 the only mask designed to protect the wearer along with some of the harms of prolonged N95 mask wearing.Post production note: At the time of release masks became mandated in Elgin County.

  • On this episode I emerge from the wilderness and back "on the grid" after a couple of wild and wonderful weeks up on the LAND. I give a podcast update in regards to some logistics with delivery of the podcast and in short will be posting every two weeks instead of weekly. This is happening as a way to focus on my Forest Therapy research and working on the LAND. I also discuss some changes to the social media channels used for the dissemination of this show and discuss some new ways the Rewild My Bio community can interact as well as stay current with adventures from the LAND. Adventures that can only happen once the battery in your vehicle goes dead and you get the chance to fully immerse in nature. Being away for most of the protests currently taking place I take the opportunity to comment on the social justice and a video I watched that resonates with me. Enjoy the episode! Please leave a rating and review and download and share past episodes.Speak Player:Topics Discussed:Posting of episodes is every two weeks while Shawn focuses on PhD research, writing, and learning from the LAND. No more Rewild My Bio on Facebook, New Rewild My Bio channel on Telegram. Shawn shares stories from the LAND hosting family and friends, working on an outhouse, fishing, vehicle breakdowns, encounters with a black bear cub, and accidentally shooting himself in the testicles with bear spray. Finish with attention to a YouTube video from Hotep Jesus that resonated with Shawn regarding Black Lives Matter. Check out the show resources for links!
