In this week's episode of The Path with Mike Salemi, I sit down with Mansal Denton, a sacred hunting guide, author, and mentor dedicated to helping men reconnect with nature, themselves, and their communities. Together, we explore how hunting becomes a spiritual rite of passage, a path to deeper masculinity, and a profound connection to nature. Mansal shares how mentorship, rituals, and intentionality turn hunting into a journey of personal and emotional growth. Whether you're curious about beginner-friendly hunts, seeking a stronger connection with nature, or looking to transform family dynamics through ceremonial practices, this conversation offers empowering insights and practical takeaways for your own path.Topics Covered:A journey into Sacred HuntingThe impact of mentorshipConfronting Death: a transformative experienceThe ripple effect of hunting on family dynamicsThe logistics of a beginner-friendly huntLINKS:Sacred Hunting*To join the upcoming private Sacred Hunt on April 10-13th in Texas with Mike, click here, visit the Sacred Hunting website and complete an application.

If the bird flu virus hasn't been isolated, why does it matter? What are the implications? Has any virus EVER been isolated? These are questions that have the potential to undermine our current understanding not only of viruses but of all sicknesses. Jamie Andrews is the Project Manager overseeing control studies to reexamine our understanding of virology. He addresses today the methodology for the new studies, the reason behind them, and what this has to do with our own personal approach to wellbeing and nurturing good health.

What's the deal with bird flu? Is it actually something we should be worried about? What's the history of it? And why has there been a focus on it and why have millions of chickens been slaughtered because of it? Jacob Diaz, an independent researcher, explains today some of its history. He goes over what has happened this time around (and when initial bird flu "outbreaks" took place in the 2000s). He covers the flaws in the PCR testing and the logic of the supposed sickness and how the fear may be a tool to influence us to rely on Big Food and Big Pharma, rather than on independent small farmers and our own wherewithal for our health. Side note: Since this interview was recorded, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared Monkeypox a “public health emergency of international concern.” We would put Monkeypox in the same category as the bird flu: a tool to instill fear and designed to coerce the public into getting unnecessary vaccines.

If you feel worn out and wrecked, like your life and hormones are out of balance, you are not alone. It's a symptom a lot of us deal with, a common result of our 24/7 busy lifestyle. The good news is that you aren't stuck! There are some simple ways to get your life (and hormones) back on track! Dr. Tami Meraglia, author of "The Hormone Secret," offers insights on just that: how to regain hormonal balance and health. She discusses how women can naturally support their bodies before, during, and after menopause. She talks about testosterone (yes, women need this, too), thyroid health, and what inhibits its proper function. Finally, she reminds us that lab results on paper don't tell the whole story.

From the initial preparation to the emotional weight of the hunt itself, I share insights into the transformative power of connecting with nature in such a deep and spiritual way. Discover the rituals, ceremonies, and personal growth that come with sacred hunting, and learn how plant medicine when used intentionally, can amplify self-exploration.

Is there anything "sacred" about hunting? What can it teach us, technically, emotionally, or spiritually?

Mansal Denton is back and radder than ever! You all know him as longtime friend of the show and dear brother of mine.

He has been an adventurer and seeker of a novel and deeper experiences with Nature since I've known him and in this ep we dive into some more of his life the last year+. We talk about his trip to Eastern Siberia, the week after Russia invaded Ukraine, to track and find relationship to Siberian Tigers. He just got back from a conservation expedition in Utah to track mountain lions and gather information on their lives. Mansal shares with us some of the medicine he has received from guiding women's only experiences in Sacred Hunting. He also shares some of what is on the horizon for him in his personal life.

In a few short years, she went from training Nick Bare for his first Ironman to running one of the most accomplished triathlon teams in the country. We first had the chance to meet Natasha the day before our first Ironman in Waco, Texas in the fall of 2021. While we weren't her athletes, she made a point to track us during the race and check in to see how we were doing. Since then, we've become great friends and she's played an incredibly important role in mentoring us over the last two years that we've known her. But, we are not alone. Natasha coaches and mentors many of her athletes in triathlon, as well as life. She's a true leader, and NVDM Coaching is a true testament to her love for her athletes and her commitment to putting God first in everything she does. In our conversation with Natasha, we discussed: Her path from professional tennis to NVDM Coaching What makes NVDM Coaching different Building mental toughness as an athlete What she learned coaching Nick Bare Putting God first in her business and life We're incredibly honored to call Natasha a friend, and we hope you find value in our conversation.

Hunting used to be a sacred practice (and in many parts of the world it still is). However, in the modernized Western world, we've gotten away from the traditional practices around sourcing our own food, which used to be a source of great spiritual and personal growth. We were excited to speak with Mansal Denton about his experience leading hunting trips that brought people back in touch with the sacred elements of hunting:- Building confidence in self- Intimacy with nature- Connecting with food- Healthy relationship with death- Brotherhood and community- Primal masculinityMansal's story beyond hunting is remarkable. As a young man, Mansal ran into trouble with the law and found himself in jail. The time away from society shaped a new perspective on life for the young man, and within the confines of prison Mansal begin to resurrect a brighter future. In our discussion, we talk about masculinity and the cultural significance of rite's of passage. We also discuss the power of handing down tradition and knowledge from one generation to the next, as a way to shape and form strong men. **DEAL ALERT**If you are interested in learning more about Mansal and his hunting trips, check out Sacred Hunting and let him know the Meat Mafia sent you to get $250 off your hunt!Mansal's book: Sacred HuntingMansal's podcast: The Mansal Denton PodcastSPONSORS Fold App - Earn Bitcoin on all of your purchases by using the Fold Debit Card - it's simple, easy, and a fun way to earn bitcoin as you spend money on healthy foods!

Expect to learn how I deal with nerves before big podcasts, my very simple memorisation tactic for the books I read, whether I class myself as anti-woke, if I think young men should leave the dating market all together right now, why I stopped working as a model, what t-shirts I always wear, whether I'm worried about EMFs from AirPods, my favourite chest day routine and much more...

A sacred hunt is a spiritual practice. On the hunt, there's an incredible attunement to the oscillation between masculine and feminine, that occurs in nearly every moment of our lives. It's as much about connecting with the land, and the animal you're hoping to kill, as it is about holding a rifle and learning how to shoot. Kyle Kingsbury introduced me to the experience, and together with a group of my guy friends, we went on a three-day hunt led by today's guest, Mansal Denton, and his two guides. Mansal makes the trip special, starting by writing a love letter to the animal you're going to kill. Many ceremonial elements are threaded throughout, and we came away with an incredible experience.

One thing I mention often on this show that I feel bears repeating is the idea that our lives themselves are a psychedelic experience. For any of you listening to this show right now, I want you to take a trip down memory lane with me as we take a second to think about the many paths we've walked down, the paths we've taken a detour from at a certain point & the path or paths we feel we're walking down currently in our lives & begin to see how each of them, no matter how independent of one another they may seem, have led us to this moment in time right now. It is by tuning into this type of awareness that we can see the psychedelic nature that our lives truly are & in doing so, be captivated by the memory of who we were yesterday & the mystery of who we will be tomorrow. Todays guest on the show is a man who, similar to what I stated above, has walked down many different paths in his life that have all allowed him to be who he is today. He is a retired football player for Arizona state, a retired UFC fighter where he fought professionally for 6 years, the former director of human optimization of Onnit & is now a coach for “Fit For Service”, which is a tribe focused on practicing vulnerability & serving yourself through service to others, is the host of the Kyle Kingsbury podcast, which is a show centered around bringing leading minds & voices together to speak to how to achieve peak performance in every day life, is a facilitator of sacred hunting experiences through the “Sacred Hunting” organization, & is using his voice to speak to the importance & potency behind subjects such as nutrition, performance, recovery, longevity, plant medicines & inner peace, amongst many others. In this episode, we will be diving into his experiences with plant medicines, what they have revealed to him, what his views are on the psychedelic nature of every day life, the wisdom he has for those of you out there looking to engage in this world & whatever else the divine wills into action during this epic dialogue we are about to embark upon.
Bonding with nature is a powerful thing, especially for those who use hunting to get in touch with the deepest parts of their souls.Mansal Denton describes the process of sacred hunting he teaches and how to harness the power of nature for your spiritual benefit, whether you want to hunt or not, in this very primal Living 4D conversation.Learn more about Mansal at his Sacred Hunting website and on social media via Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter.For Living 4D listeners: If you're interested in participating in a sacred hunt, receive a $250 discount when you enroll by mentioning that you heard about it on Living 4D.Show NotesMansal's rite of passage into manhood came in prison.

Our guest, here for his second appearance, is Mansal Denton. Mansal is a very unique voice in today's hunting culture, working at the intersection of trans-cultural ceremonial shamanism and hunting, seamlessly blending the two in a program — and brand — he calls Sacred Hunting. Of course, it's not that other hunting isn't sacred, but rather, that often this ancient and fundamentally human part of the hunt is forgotten by our modern culture, in favor of more gear, tech, or trophies. And that works for a lot of people, so we don't say it to take away from the pursuits of others. Rather, we say it to highlight the need many folks feel for a more connected and holistic approach to the hunt, the land, and the animals they harvest. We believe history will record this decade as a pivotal transitional moment in the way humans relate to the land, ecology, and the species we cohabitate with. We suspect, for hunting to have a secure place in our future, we'll need to fundamentally re-order the way we approach it, since many folks today and probably many more tomorrow will struggle to understand hunting culture as it exists right now. We need to be sure that hunting isn't legislated away like some relic of the past but instead remains a living tradition with a place in our new, increasingly complex society. This show has been a small part of a greater shift back towards a more food-centric view of hunting. And of course, in bringing a more holistic ecological perspective too. Mansal's work goes a bit further, reimagining our modern spiritual relationship to the hunt and the animals we pursue. This spiritual approach was, throughout most of human history, inextricable from the hunt itself, which means that today's more secular approach is kind of a radical new experiment in some regards. And we think that has left many would-be-hunters feeling alienated from this really foundational human pursuit. So, while Mansal's approach to hunting might not be for everyone, we think it's a crucial slice of the pie chart that is modern hunting. It's certainly recruiting, retaining, and reactivating certain individuals who've become jaded towards what they perceive as a spiritless hunt. And many of us, even if we don't choose to express it so openly, know, deep down, hunting isn't just a physical experience, it truly is an expression of the spirit.

Throughout my training and practice as a physician, I have come to one very disappointing conclusion: Western medicine isn't helping people lead better lives. Now that I've realized this, I've become obsessed with understanding what makes us healthy or ill. I want to live the best life I can and I want to be able to share this knowledge with others so that they can do the same. This podcast is the result of my relentless search to understand the roots of chronic disease. If you want to know how to live the most radical life possible I hope you'll join me on this journey.

You know that animals have to die for food to get to your plate. You don't know in your body what it feels like to look that animal in the eye and put a knife in its heart and realize, with its eyes looking back at you, that this is a sentient being that has a family and that loves and has emotions—similar but different to us. When you have that experience, it's embedded in you.” ~Mansal Denton Mansal Denton is a “conscious carnivore” and hunting advocate and the co-founder of Candor and the Omega Diet movement. He is the author of the 2021 book Sacred Hunting: Rekindling an Ancient Spiritual Practice. He hosts hunting immersion experiences via Sacred Hunting, through which participants use the sacred art of hunting and power plants to awaken themselves to their masculinity and self-growth. Today's conversation is an exploration of what comprises true, healthy masculinity, and why tapping into the primal nature of man through intentional hunting is foundational in the quest to reach one's full potential as a man in modern society.

Welcome back to Iron Sights! In this episode, I interviewed the founder and facilitator for a recent hunting experience I had in Austin Texas. If you enjoyed the stories and lessons shared from Episode #22 with Mike Salemi this conversation will be right up your alley. Mansal discusses his background, growing up with highly educated parents who supported him through early childhood mistakes which put him behind bars at just 20 years old. The time spent in Prison inspired Mansal to seek mentorship and follow his callings for sport, yoga, healing ceremonies and hunting. In 2021, Mansal facilitated countless hunting events, spending over 2,000 hours in nature leading Sacred Hunts. This podcast shares the experiences and life path that fueled his journey into becoming the leader he is today.Timestamps:00:00 Welcoming Mansal To Iron Sights00:38 How We Met Through The Sacred Hunt01:56 Mansal's Background04:17 Scott's Experience Sacred Hunting05:37 Why People Sign Up To Work With Masal08:18 The Reason Mansal Facilitates Transformations11:54 How Mansal Got Into Hunting14:50 A Calling For Sweat Lodges19:59 Ending Up In Prison31:00 The Mindset of Getting Through Prison35:11 The Transition After Leaving Prison39:11 Learning Through Hunting, Jiu-Jitsu, Yoga43:07 How Mansal Started Hunting46:37 Mansal's Journey From Passion to Profession49:51 The Emotions After Mansal's First Kill54:31 Learning To Respect Death Through Hunting59:03 What To Expect During A Sacred Hunt1:10:05 Scott Breaking Down His Experience1:11:18 Hunting As A Rights of Passage1:18:26 The Community of Sacred Hunting1:21:46 The Future of Sacred Hunting1:31:26 The Next Sacred Hunt in 2022

BenGreenfieldFitness.com/sacredhuntingpodcast My guest on this podcast, Mansal Denton, also known as "Little Beaver", is the founder of Sacred Hunting, host of the Mansal Denton Podcast, and the subject of an upcoming documentary BELOW THE DROP, which explores our relationship to life and death through hunting. Feeling insecure in early life, he chased a woman to Europe, which led him to prison. Struggling with shame and confusion of what it meant to be a man, he found his calling with the sacred art of hunting. He now desires to share this practice with more men. His indigenous name comes from a Crow Sun Dance chief. His spiritual lineage is derived from six years of mentorship from a Muskogee/Creek medicine man named Will "Star Heart". What is Sacred Hunting? A practice that leads us back to our origins. A reminder that, for our ancestors, obtaining the food that sustains life was a spiritual act involving bloodshed. A reconnection to nature and the earth that gave us birth. An opportunity for connection and tribal brotherhood. A transformative encounter with death. Mansal Denton, like the men he leads on wilderness quests, was raised in a culture alienated from its sources of nourishment and sustenance. A youthful indiscretion that led to a prison cell fundamentally altered his life's trajectory. Here, he shows the power and vitality that the hunt can bring into men's lives in this perilous time, when rites of passage are notably absent. Sacred Hunting brings the richness of his hunting experience, and that of the men whose journeys he facilitates, into inspirational focus. During our discussion, you'll discover: -How a stint in the clink became a rite of passage for Mansal... -Ben's preferred style of hunting and why... -When the hunt took on its sacred form for Mansal... -An insider's look at the sacred hunting experience... -Why it's especially empowering that sacred hunts occur with men only... -How plant medicines can enhance the hunt... -What occurs after the animal is killed... -And much more...

Sacred Hunting with Mansal Denton Hunting has been a part of men's lives since time immemorial but with the birth of modern civilization, these practices that were once so heavily involved in the lives of men have since disappeared. Modern civilization has brought us many gifts but has also taken away important things that our hunter gatherer ancestors used to practice, such as the rite of passage into manhood through hunting. Our guest for today, Mansal Denton, wants to bring these sacred rituals back into the modern era as a way to help men express their masculinity in a healthier way. Through this practice of hunting, he wants to help you be more intimate with nature, be more confident in yourself and connect deeper to your primal roots. If you've been feeling like you're lacking in these aspects then this episode is just for you. Episode Highlights What Mansal has learned from being single Mansal's experience with plant medicine How Mansal got interested in hunting What happened to Mansal when he started to lead these new experiences for other men Mansal's time in prison Why Mansal went to prison How do men find mentors?

Ep 22: Mike Salemi is a world class performance and health coach who provides opportunities for men to improve on the physical, mental, and emotional components of building a strong foundation for standing your ground as a man. In this episode Mike & Scott unpack their recent trip to southern Texas and the Sacred Hunting experience and why they hunt. Both Mike & Scott describe their very personal and shared experience of what the trip unexpectedly provided and taught them. They discuss sharing both clear and meaningful intentions and the impact it has on outcomes, especially the unexpected ones. Mike talks about the value of solitude as it relates to making a connection to self and to others, entering into a “container of safety” where the men can be and feel judgment free, and the opportunity to both create for self-discovery and personal growth. Mike and Scott detail the reality of preparing for and getting the perfect shot and the parallels between hunting and life. Iron Sights podcast is hosted by Scott Howell. *Please make sure to leave a review if you enjoyed the podcast!

In this episode, I go off-grid with Mansal Denton, the founder of Sacred Hunting: an intentional hunter who combines plant medicines and indigenous practices into each hunt. So many of us have become disconnected from what we consume, becoming all-too-accustomed to buying sterile cuts of meat in plastic, often from questionable sources. My recent voyage with Mansal reclaimed the innate human desire and necessity to live from the earth and interact with life and death with intention and respect. I reflect on my four-day ceremonial hunt and the breadth of emotions, judgments, and fears I faced when killing and skinning a wild boar. Mansal Denton’s sacred and sensitive vision for hunting, framed by his six-year training with an indigenous Muskogee (Creek) medicine man, shreds any preconceived judgment that hunting is an egotistical expression of toxic masculinity. After experiencing his unique mastery of the field firsthand, I’ve witnessed the care and compassion he has for the land, its creatures, and humanity. 10:35 — Mansal’s Background, Rock Bottom and Prison Sentence Time spent in prison Ethnic-divisions in prison Restrictions post-sentence My own sports hunting experiences growing up 33:59 — Motivations to Start Hunting Desire to get closer to his food Drive to express his aggression authentically Thinking and consciously embodying masculinity Reflecting on his first kill Ayahuasca lessons and healing 51:48 — Disconnect Between Eating Meat and Killing It Experiences being vegetarian Connection to the natural life cycle Hierarchy of suffering in the wild vs. regenerative farming Creatures embodying their mission in the ecosystem DMT energetic release at death Seeking connection to plants and animals 1:20:33 — Dealing with Animosity Sports hunting and the perceived lack of consciousness Shadow and ego in the hunting community Indigenous hunting vs. Western hunting Analyzing hierarchy in the ecosystem 1:34:38 — Training with Indigenous Cultures How a Muskogee (Creek) medicine man gave him sacred hunting tools Relationship with rattlesnakes Sacred ceremonies during intentional hunting Why he uses psychedelics on a hunt Reconciling with the “way things are” after a kill Upleveling consciousness on a hunt 01:59:10 — The Future of Sacred Hunting Democratizing sacred hunting practices Plans to partner with land Collaborating with women Reaction from traditional hunting groups Conservation efforts within the hunting community More about this episode.

Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them? Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities? Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated? EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to. In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF. By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.

Luke Storey — host of The Life Stylist Podcast — joins us to share a "first hunt" story like you've never heard before. Luke and Daniel have been friends for over a decade, originally connecting in the health and nutrition space. Luke recently went on his first hog hunt in Texas, as part of a weekend with past podcast guest Mansal Denton of Sacred Hunting, and this interview centers around his experience. Not just any hog hunt — this hunt was book ended by ceremony, entheogenic medicine, and a particularly deep and nuanced reflection on what it means to hunt, kill, and eat your quarry. We promise — you’ve never heard someone break down their first hunting experience with so much subtlety and emotional intelligence. This episode is not to be missed!

Rob English is a medical editor who specializes in hair loss disorders. He sits on the editorial board of Dermatology and Therapy, and he's the founder of perfecthairhealth.com – a website dedicated to showcasing evidence-based protocols for hair regrowth, with or without drugs. His fascination with hair loss began in 2007 – right after he was diagnosed with androgenic alopecia. Today, he spends his time managing a small team of researchers and teaching other hair loss sufferers how to avoid his treatment mistakes. By employing an approach that prioritizes education over product purchases and one-on-one support over "one-size-fits-all" solutions, he has helped thousands of men and women improve their hair loss – and on their terms (most often without drugs).

Welcome to “The Emergent Human where we explore Optimizing Health, Embodied Spirituality and Post Conventional Living. Today I speak with Mansal Denton "Little Beaver," the founder of Sacred Hunting, host of the Mansal Denton Podcast, and the subject of an upcoming documentary BELOW THE DROP, which explores our relationship to life and death through hunting.

Robby’s roots run deep in the natural food community. Previously, as CFO/COO at EPIC, Robby spent much of the last decade studying regenerative agriculture at ranches all over the world. Through this education, Force of Nature was co-founded with the intention to accelerate the creation of a global regenerative supply network. Force of Nature works in partnership with land stewards, ranchers and farmers committed to creating a positive return on the planet. With Force of Nature, consumers now have the ability to invest in environmental regeneration by consuming meat that is good for the planet. Born and raised in Austin, TX, he received both a bachelor’s degree and a master's degree from the University of Texas. When he’s not building businesses aimed at saving the planet, Robby can be found on a trail, ocean, mountain or field, always making time to appreciate nature and explore his surroundings. Robby is also a land steward at ROAM Ranch where he owns regeneratively managed bison.

Gili is a former Isreali Defense Force (IDF) operative who participated in numerous military operations in his young adult life. He spent many years first numb to the trauma the war caused and then started to open, process, and heal through somatic work (in the body) and other men's work. Most recently, Gili participated in a Sacred Hunting trip where his intention was to connect with the killer archetype again, but in a healthy and integrated way.
Nat Eliason has attended two Sacred Hunting experiences before it was even named as such. In his most recent experience, Nat acknowledges the redemption he experienced successfully killing an elk calf providing the group with meat. Hear his story from the wild mountains of Colorado.
Chris Marhefka has been hunting for many years. He started originally hunting with friends, had recent experiences that put him off to hunting, and gave it a last chance with Sacred Hunting. In his experience, he was able to reframe hunting and anchor new memories and wisdom. One poignant experience included wounding an animal that taught him many lessons. We dig into his experience hunting elk in Colorado. Chris is a close friend a facilitator of men's work and CEO of Training Camp for the Soul
On this episode of Stories From the Wild, I interview my close friend Peter Griffin who attended a Sacred Hunting experience for his first trip. In the experience, he successfully killed a female hog, which was a profound and life-changing experience as he recounts. We discuss and share the sadness that arises in the process of killing an animal and the necessity of tapping into this archetype for being a part of the Earth. Hopefully, this provides context for what it's like for a total beginner to begin hunting.
Jordan Bowditch is a good friend and self-described "conscious bro". He's co-founder of Kinda Conscious humor videos. He shares his process of hunting an aoudad replete with self-doubt, fear, courage, sadness, and elation. He finished that hunting excursion with an epic, challenging hike with the weight of the entire animal over his shoulders. In the challenges of carrying that load, he received even more life lessons. Jordan is a great storyteller and this podcast is a vivid representation of what's possible attending a Sacred Hunting experience.

Different podcasts that I listen to have spoken about hunting and once I came across Mansal and the work that he does I knew I wanted to learn from him. Therefore this episode is as much a learning experience for me as I hope it is for you!Check out Mansal's website: https://www.sacredhunting.com/ Instagram: @mansaldenton Thank you for your support!
