S.2, EP.23 - RITES OF PASSAGE AND NATURAL HUMAN CONNECTION WITH LEE TREW - a podcast by Jake Clapson

Hey! Welcome to Move Wild Podcast, a podcast dedicated to understanding human health from an evolutionary perspective, and integrating the universal principles of human health and wildness into our lives. Each week I interview and discuss with guests on topics and conversations entered around re-wilding, natural movement, nature connection and ancestral living practices. Thanks for joining me on this journey!

About today’s show:

Today I have the pleasure of sharing a conversation I recorded with Lee Trew.

Lee taught bushcraft and 'coyote mentoring' on youth camps, before training as a psychotherapist and counsellor.

Lee has been using Jon Young's coyote mentoring approach for over a decade, and began learning and teaching bushcraft as a teenager at the Forest School Camps in the UK. He studied indigenous survival skills at Tom Brown Jr's Tracker School, and Practical Primitive, both in the US, and spent a year living in the bush, finding shelter, water and food on the landscape; putting it into practice. More than that, he found a radically new experience of what it means to be human.

Now he brings psychology and bushcraft together for rewilding; helping people of all ages to reawaken their wildness and deepen their connection with the natural world.

He was also:

- A speaker on rewilding at the Ultimate Health Event in Sydney

- Featured in ABC's Life at 9 documentary

- An instructor for Claire Dunn during the period she wrote about in her book,

My Year Without Matches

- The bushcraft and trapping consultant for Australian film, The Hunter.Links:
