Rewilding

I was pointed towards this post on rewilding by Aquila ka Hekate.
A very well written article by Kinoo Doodaym on the ideas around REWILDING, not only a good introduction to the subject, but comprehensive too.

"Human animals evolved to live in small egalitarian groups and live a leisurely lifestyle. We're not supposed to work 40+ hours a week just for mere survival and a few useless trinkets. We're supposed to work half that or less and thrive. A typical hunter-gatherer can feed five people working two hours a day on subsistence. We're supposed to interact with the rest of the world, instead of shielding ourselves away from the rest of life. Part of my motivation is spiritual/religious. We're supposed to have real connections to family and friends, not just superficial relationships and MySpace "friends". Hunter-gatherers spend a lot of time hanging out with their friends and family, telling stories and playing games of chance."
