Wise Traditions

The Wise Traditions podcast is for those who seek optimal health, based on ancient wisdom. We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through “improving” nature. On the contrary, “life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed,” as Dr. Price put it. We thrive when we live as our ancestors did, and we can look to the past for clues on how to go about it. This show, sponsored by the Weston A. Price Foundation, is an invitation to follow ancient health ways and to embrace alternative healing modalities to live our best lives. Our host, Hilda Labrada Gore, known as Holistic Hilda, interviews experts on a wide variety of topics—ranging from nutrient-dense foods to improving mental health to homesteading to detoxing to healing emotional trauma to the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Every episode offers the listener a new (ancient) way to heal, grow, and live a happy life, brimming with vitality.

    Reading The Ingredients Might Just Change Your Life with Gubba Homestead

    Improved digestion. Clearer skin. Brain fog clearing up. These are some of the benefits of paying attention to the quality of ingredients that go into (and on) the body! Gubba Homestead, a leading figure in the homesteading and natural skincare community, experienced all of the above and then some. Her family’s health improved, too, as they began avoiding toxic chemicals and returning to more natural foods and products. Gubba tells her story today and also what led to her recent de-platforming on TikTok. (She was talking about the dangers of ingredients in sunscreen when her account was taken down.) She explains where her passion originated and why she won’t give up helping people uncover what’s in their food and skin care products. Finally, she also gets into what led her into homesteading and why she believes we can all become homesteaders in our own right (even if we live in the city)!

    Know Your Crunchy Legal Rights with Julie Dean Richards

    Defend your right to drink raw milk, to buy food directly from your farmer and to keep your bodily autonomy! Julie Dean Richards, the Crunchy Legal Lady, helps us understand what our rights are when it comes to all of the above and then some. She goes over how to obtain a religious exemption to vaccinations, how to identify health practitioners who honor your right as a parent (so that your children will not have to get shots if you don't want them to). She discusses the Amos Miller case and Private Membership Agreements and whether or not they are helpful for protecting your rights to purchase food from the farmer of your choice. And last, but not least, Julie reminds us that we can be activists without ever turning up in a courtroom or at a protest at city hall.

    Improving Fascia Function For Optimal Health with Elisha Celeste

    Fascia is a kind of "sensing organ" (connective tissue) that extends from the top of your head to the tip of your toes. How can we work with it, improve its suppleness, and benefit from its healing capabilities? Today, Elisha Celeste of the School for Living Science and the Human Freedom Project podcast, helps us wrap our minds around this mysterious, all-encompassing tissue. Elisha goes over the kinetic energies in nature and how they relate to how our bodies function, and consequently how our fascia acts and reacts to our environment. She offers tips for optimizing fascial health (like the importance of hydration for the fascia to work properly) while also reminding us that there is not one simple technique for healing that works for everybody. Elisha also busts common misconceptions around fascia and even fascial release.
