Description
FREE Journaling course here: https://www.tomlanghorne.com/4-days-to-focusJoin my school here: https://www.resilientrootssurvival.com/Have we grown too comfortable for our own good?Kahlil Gibran warned that “the lust for comfort murders the passion of the soul and then walks grinning in the funeral.”In this Deepdive, I explore what Gibran meant, why wilderness living feels so alive, and how we can rewild our houses so they nourish the spirit instead of dulling it.If you’ve ever felt modern life slowly numbing your senses… or sensed the forest creature in you wanting to wake up… this one’s for you.I read the full poem “On Houses” from The Prophet, unpack some of its most powerful passages, and share how discomfort, wilderness skills, and resetting our “baseline” can renew our connection to the world and to ourselves.If you want to learn the practical side of this — building your resilience rucksack, resetting the baseline, and living closer to the land — come join us in Resilient Roots.May the morning mist always be your doorway,and the songs of the night your windows.
