The FERAL Journal is a place to unlearn the noise — to strip back the filters, the formulas, the false calm of performative wellness — and return to what’s real. Here, we write from the dirt up: about food as freedom, nature as teacher, and the quiet revolution of living in rhythm with the earth.

Breathwork and the Animal Mind
Breathwork isn’t about transcendence, it’s about speaking the language of the animal nervous system. Explore how breath reconnects you to instinct, regulation, and the sovereign wisdom of the body.
