Covers the poor-quality air in cities and what it's doing to our health. Then how fresh air is much better. 7-Water - Quantity and quality matters. Discusses the horrors of tap water, the ideal of fresh spring water and lots in between.8-Movement - Covers the natural movements of the human body and how they all fit together.9-Sun - Sunlight has been demonized in our culture.

After the science and benefits are covered all different types of fasting, intermittent vs. extended, water vs. nutritional, and more are covered.14-Herbalism - Herbs herbs extend far beyond the few culinary herbs we do use.

Also the fungal, viral and even animal component that constitutes us.

This short chapter covers some of those fears and begins to break the spell. 17-Disconnect to Reconnect - A humorous and impactful story of a shaman answering a cell phone during a ceremony kicks off this discussion. 18-The Multi-Level Benefits of Time in Nature - Includes research on "forest bathing" and more of the psychological health benefits that are there. 19-The Life and Intelligence of Nature - Nature is very much alive. This mind-expanding chapter delves into some of the latest research. 20-Heart Field and Heart Perception - The heart is an organ of perception, just like our eyes or ears.
