A Lion Tracker’s Inner Journey of Awakening & Inspiration w/ Boyd Varty #353

The Life Stylist - A podcast by Luke Storey - Martedì

I'm still tingling from my in-depth, heart-opening conversation with Boyd Varty, a true man-of-the-earth whose book, “The Lion Tracker's Guide to Life,” I ravaged through last week in eager anticipation of this recording.  Boyd Varty grew up on the verdant plains of a South African safari, within touching distance of the epic wildlife most of us only catch glimpses of on 2D screens. As a lion tracker, Boyd has studied the movements and mindset of the animal kingdom in a way I have never encountered before. He's articulately folded the truths from the bush into the human experience, using his background to explore trauma – both for himself and as a facilitator for others – in sacred ceremonies.  Medicine flows through this man, and this raw, meaty, wild ride of an episode is as enlightening as it is emotional.    10:38 — Childhood In the Bush  Growing up with the land Working in harmony with nature The safari that changed his life   The connection between tracking and trauma Learning to listen to your inner-knowing   29:40 — Looking at Nature v.s Being of Nature  Why there is no separation of self from nature Becoming more present in everyday life The third language of feeling   39:05 — Communicating With the Wild Tracking in action Energetic interaction with lions Talking with animals while tracking lions The purpose of tracking   49:13 — How to Track Your Life  Working with the unknown  Dialing down and following cues Losing track and persevering  Working with community The feeling of “enoughness” The awakening algorithm  Unseen heroism    1:12:10 — Exploring Trauma and Awakening Kidnapping and near-death experience A crocodile encounter and lessons learned Creating shared presence through ceremony  The gifts expressed from trauma  Integrating 5-MeO-DMT    01:48:09 — Facilitating Ceremonies  Spontaneously facilitating during the first ceremony  Unlocking shadow and weakness Mentorship with a Peruvian shaman for five years Redefining the meaning of ceremony    More about this episode.
