Rewilding Yourself

A Wilderness Journey Back to Who You Actually Are

Book Cover for Rewilding Yourself, original artwork by Suzanne Schevene Brokaw

Something in you is ready to come home to yourself.

Rewilding Yourself is an experiential wilderness journey for women who sense there is more — more aliveness, more authenticity, more of themselves — waiting beneath the noise of everyday life.

Not a self-help book.

An actual journey, with terrain to traverse, fires to sit beside, and parts of yourself to meet along the way.

Inside You'll Discover:

  • A wilderness journey through five distinct landscapes, each one inviting deeper self-discovery

  • Somatic practices and gentle inquiries that move transformation from the head into the body

  • Stories from the trail — vulnerable, funny, real — that remind you you're not alone

  • Tools for meeting your emotions as energy rather than obstacles

  • A way home to your most authentic, sovereign, wildly alive self

“… growth isn't always learning something new. Sometimes it's finally living what you've already understood.” Read full review on Goodreads


Rewilding Field Guide

Your Next Step on the Trail

Field Guide for Rewilding Yourself, original art by Suzanne Schevene Brokaw

You've walked the wilderness journey. Now it's time to live it.

The Rewilding Yourself Field Guide is the companion for readers who aren't ready to close the book and move on — who want to go deeper into the practices, carry them into daily life, and start doing real energy work, not just reading about it.

This isn't a workbook of prompts. It's a guided practice, pairing each step with body-based tools — like Jin Shin Jyutsu point work, matched to each practice in a way you won't find anywhere else — so insight doesn't stay in your head. It moves through you.

Richest when paired with Rewilding Yourself — and complete enough to use on its own, wherever you're starting from.

Inside you'll discover:

  • Fourteen Jin Shin Jyutsu points, woven section by section into the same journey you've already begun

  • "Living It" practices that move each chapter's teaching from insight into daily life

  • Guidance for when a practice feels hard or unclear — because real practice always does, sometimes

  • Seven hands-on creative practices, one per section, to help insight settle in through the body, not just the mind

  • Deepened inquiries and a Love Letter to Self that builds, section by section, into something whole

  • A full-body Main Central Flow practice to carry the entire journey in your hands

The Rewilding Yourself book helps someone come home to themselves. The Field Guide starts teaching them how to live from home.  —  Sam at SamtechForCreators

Descriptive without being invasive on how to use the space of my mind — very user-friendly. It's a way to become more spiritual and self-aware that I can use whenever and whatever state I'm in, and that's what I'm really attracted to. Both books “Rewilding Yourself” and “Rewilding Field Guide” are things I can refer back to and use again and again, which is priceless to me." — Dawn Dimmick, NC
