Mike Corey Instagram – LESSONS FROM 72H with the Yanomami Tribe of Venezuela.
One of the most isolated tribes in the Amazon Rainforest.
Hunting, fishing, and blowing Yopo.
These are the moments I’m searching for. Authentic connection with people living lives so different than mine. The wisdom from just a few days lasts forever. Some big take always:
1. We must battle daily with our inner worlds. Most sicknesses are spiritual. The greatest wars are inside ourselves.
2. Barefoot allows a connection to earth. None of the Yanomami have ever worn shoes. Allow your body adapt and it will. We coddle our bodies too much, and we are weak because of it.
3. We become everything when we die. We melt into the earth, physically and spiritually. We are connected to everything. We came from it, and we will return to it. Every leaf has the soul of a person imbued inside. Treat it with respect.
4. Jaguars and Vipers are f*cking scary. There is no shame in fear, it must be embraced. Otherwise fear will kill your mind.
5. Loin-clothes are in. A bright red thong is the perfect wardrobe for the Amazon. I’m not wrong. You’re wrong.
