Ancient Ways of the Future

Ur
Remembering

Ur, ûr (Heb.)--light; region of light; East; Orient; brightness; brilliance; splendor; fire; flame; blaze.

Meta. Understanding, intelligence, active in man, or the inner spiritual phase of man's being, whence true light shines throughout the consciousness (light, region of light, East, brightness, splendor, fire, blaze); also the shining of that light.

There is a fire beneath your fatigue.

A rhythm beneath your symptoms.

A hum beneath your confusion

Remember?

Find your way forward to rhythms older than time — where ancestral wisdom meets quantum circadian attunment.

 

Elements of Life

Sunlight

You are wired for the sun. Every dawn whispers to your cells, telling time through light. Rise with the sun, live outdoors, and guard the night as sacred dark.

Water

Water remembers. Drink from springs when you can. Let your cells taste wild water — free of burden, rich with memory.

Earth

Let your feet touch the pulse of Earth. Her electrons quiet inflammation, recharge your body, and anchor you to the rhythm of life.

Air

Like the leaves of trees, you breathe in what the Earth offers. Oxygen feeds your fire, turning breath into energy, presence, and vitality.

First Principles of circadian
re-wilding 

Sacredness

Sacredness shimmers where the ordinary breaks open — where a glance, a stone, a breath become thresholds to the Infinite.

Autopoeisis 

The self-creating spark of life. Wholeness not imposed, but emerging from within — every part speaking to the whole.

Uniqueness

The melody the stars forgot to repeat — the life no other can live.

Decentralization

Like mycelium or rivers, flowing freely without a single center, yet deeply connected.

Wisdom

The slow unfolding of light within. The kind of knowing that listens before it speaks, and answers without needing to be asked.

Inter-dependency 

Nothing thrives alone. We are braided into one another’s breath, warmth, and wonder.

First Practices tested and refined by eons of human evolution.

Light Positive Lifestyle

Light tells time. Morning sun calibrates your inner clock. Let night be dark, and your body will remember how to heal.

Grounded Lifestyle

Touch the Earth. Inflammation quiets when your body meets the ground.

Negative Capability

The capacity to dwell peacefully in uncertainty — to stay open when the mind longs to close.

Sovereign Lifestyle

Sovereignty is the song that rises from the bones — the quiet power of a spirit untethered, standing whole in its own sky.

Hormesis

Under pressure, stone becomes diamond. Stress in small doses awakens deep resilience.

Adaptation

Cold springs. Hot sun. Wild air. You grow wiser with every contrast.

Breathwork

Breath is the rhythm of your nervous system. Breathe well — it rewires your mind, slows time, awakens presence.

Via Negativa

The way of removal — fasting, silence, darkness. Subtracting to discover what matters.

Embodiment

Where dream meets muscle. The sacred speaks in your step, your stillness, your movement.

Movement

You were born to move. Even stillness longs to dance beneath your skin.

Basic Gear for circadian re-wilding 

Be Grounded

Choose barefoot. Or choose not to wear rubber soled shoes. Earthrunners offers a range including IonSync shoes and sandals.

Block Blue Light

Protect your eyes from blue light toxicity. Ideally wear yellow for daytime computer use, orange after dark, and red just before bedtime.

Embrace the Darkness

Sleep in total darkness in a cool room. The Manta Sleep Mask for example.

Just say no to Air Pods

Try Defender Shield Air Tubes for reducing exposing to electromagnetic fields around your head while on your devices.

Light Filtering Software

Reduce your daily exposure to unopposed blue light using software widgets or adjusting the Accessibility Settings on your laptop, tablet and phone. Iris and f.lux are two examples.

LED-candescent Bulbs

NIRA Lighting

More resources for circadian attunement, tech sapience, and self-healing .

Daylight Computer

e-ink technology upgraded. The first non blue-light emissive tablet.

NIRA Lighting

Health benefits of incandescent plus efficiency of LED.

DIY Ice Bath Kit

Grounded Ginger plans and kits to make your own freezer plunge.

Spectrum View Monitor

Beautifully handcrafted wood case; full-spectrum backlit by the sunlight or incandescent light. DIY open-source option available.

Light Therapy

Infrared and Ultraviolet light therapy by a reputable brand such as EMR-Tek tested to be low-EMF and low-flicker.

Safe Living Technologies

Safe & Sound EM3 Meter measures low level AC Magnetic Fields and AC Electric Fields with professional accuracy
