Hello everyone, please join me in giving a warm welcome to @Michael Lietz , the founder of „Longevity Skool“ — a soulful, German-language community built on the deep belief that longevity is crafted through daily habits, clear intention, and quiet consistency. Michael joins us with a powerful and grounded mission: to help people add more healthy, vibrant years to their lives — not through drastic changes, but through small, sustainable steps taken every day. His community focuses on what truly matters: mental clarity, physical strength, mindful nutrition, and the habits that support a long life lived with purpose and independence. He embodies the very essence of mindful living — understanding that true vitality grows from what we do *and* what we choose *not* to do, day after day. Michael, your thoughtful and purposeful presence is a true gift to our space. We are so glad you're here and excited to learn, share, and grow alongside you. Everyone, please feel free to say hello below! What's one small daily habit that helps you build a longer, healthier life?

🌿 A Garden Chat Across Communities & A Shared Resource Community Call recording 2025_12_13 I wanted to share a lovely ripple of connection from this week. I had the chance to join a conversation in Marama's community, where we dove into some of my favorite topics: practical gardening tips, the power of healing plants, and creating simple, selfmade products from the harvest. The energy was wonderful—full of curiosity and shared wisdom. A huge thank you to @Marama Elizabeth for hosting such an open, inspiring space and for the awesome energy everyone brought. For anyone here who’s interested in those topics (or just enjoys a good garden chat!), the full recording is available here: https://www.skool.com/nature-inspired-living-2560/community-call-recording-this-morning It was a beautiful reminder of how our passions connect us across different spaces. Grateful for these threads that weave our communities together. #CommunityConnection #GardeningTips #HealingPlants #HomeHarvest #SharedWisdom

Inspired by @Mike Gagnon ’s powerful look at how modern wheat lost its nourishment, I went deeper — and found a living example of nature’s generosity being silenced for profit. This isn't just about bread. It’s about a plant so perfectly suited to humans that it was labeled a “weed” to keep it out of our hands. I’m talking about Chufa (Tiger Nuts) — a gluten-free, drought-resistant tuber that sustained civilizations for thousands of years. Why was it nearly erased? Because it needs no chemicals, enriches the soil, and can’t be patented — a direct challenge to an industry built on control. #### 📺 Two perspectives that tell one bigger story: 1. Mike’s essential watch: Why Medieval Bread Was A Superfood… https://youtu.be/YtWokSMmC3Q 2. The revealing follow-up: The Superfood They Turned Into a Weed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYjndrw8Ibc Related postings: https://www.skool.com/nature-inspired-living-2560/maybe-why-im-gluten-sensitive https://www.skool.com/nature-inspired-living-2560/why-healthy-eating-feels-hard-and-how-we-break-free-together #### 💬 Your voice matters: - Have you ever grown or foraged Chufa / Tiger Nuts? - What other resilient plants do you think were pushed aside because they couldn’t be controlled or sold? - How does this shift the way you see what’s labeled a “weed” versus a “crop”? This is more than history — it’s a reminder that real food sovereignty begins when we reclaim the stories, seeds, and soil that industries tried to bury. I’d love to hear your thoughts below. --- #FoodSovereignty #Chufa #TigerNuts #ResilientGardening #ForgottenFoods #GrowYourOwn #Permaculture #SoilHealth #Superfoods #ReclaimWisdom

A heartfelt thank you to our member @Iskra Petrova in Bulgaria for sharing this thoughtful feedback. It highlights something important: connection across time zones. We hear you! To make our live calls more accessible and build stronger local connections, we're exploring the idea of a dedicated European call, likely around 8:00 PM Germany time. **If you're based in Europe and interested, please:** 1. Comment below with your country (e.g., "Bulgaria" or "Germany"). 2. Let us know what you'd love to discuss—gardening, mindful habits, permaculture, LETS networks, or simply connecting with like-minded neighbors. Your input will help us shape this together. If there's enough interest, we'll announce the first European circle soon! No pressure, just possibility. Let's see what we can grow. 🌿
