The Ancestral Now is a structured exploration of how we can engage with overarching ancestral influences in the modern world. We explore the ancestral not to seek re-enactment of ancestral life-ways or to mimic the ancestors, but to discover what is inherent and innate within us. In this way, the act of connecting to ancestral forces becomes a path to self-discovery.

We dive into the inherited patterns, needs, and desires that have evolved over billions of years. Some of these show up in distinct, human ways, and others are shared with the more broad circle of life. We explore how ancestry influenced our rhythms, movement patterns, nutritional orientations, and the underlying foundations of our worldview.

This book seeks to move beyond our personal ancestry and connect more broadly to THE Ancestors, which includes the humans of our personal lineage, the thousands of generations of hunter-gatherers, Neanderthals, early hominids, and extends further back in time to the first lifeforms of this planet and beyond. The ways of relating to the massive stream of power presented here are grounded in readily accessible, pragmatic practices.
