So interesting of you to say this…. I just recently finished a retreat with the Teyuna Elders, at Omega Institute. More info here.
This group of very wise elders are one of the few groups untouched by colonization in the world. The elders spend their first 7 years of life in a cave. It promotes a “deep listening” to the mother earth.
Our ideas of what it would be like, or was like to be a cave man, or woman, might also be influenced by whatever someone told us about that. I came away with a deep respect for what it must be like to live in a cave.
