September 24th-26th, 2010

I am honored and excited to share that I will be speaking at the upcoming Longevity Now Conference! This health seminar unlike any other. That is because this seminar has the worlds leading health authorities, all gathered in one place for a whole weekend, to share their unique knowledge around health and longevity. The Longevity Now Conference is held at the Orange County Hilton in Costa Mesa, CA. The Longevity Now Conference is by far, the most original, comprehensive, and exhilarating healing and longevity seminar I have ever seen.

Aside from myself speaking, we will be graced with the presence of many other amazing health experts such as David Wolfe, Dr. Joseph Mercola, Frank Giglio, Donna Gates, Truth Caulkins, Nadine Artemis, and several others! Each presenter brings to us their unique skillset and education around optimal health and longevity. We are blessed to receive such a wide range of knowledge and experience to learn from! I can’t wait to see what everyone brings to the stage!

My lecture will revolve around Eugenics and what “natural foods” really are, in this day and age. I recently did an interview with Len Foley of the Longevity Now team, in preparation for the event which you can listen to here, and get a taste of what I will be speaking about at the conference!

Another aspect that makes this seminar unlike any other, is that each individual participant will be “grounded” (using the latest cutting-edge technology provided to us by Earthing) throughout the event in its entirety! This is exciting to me, because I am a huge advocate for maximizing the amount of time we spend outdoors, with our barefeet connected to the ground. However, in this day and age, most of us are unable to spend all of our time outdoors ~ That is where the grounding technology comes in. We can use these advances to ground us while we are spending time indoors, working away by keeping our feet on a ground pad, or wearing one of their grounding bands. In addition, each participant will receive a complimentary $40 Earthing Kit so that they will experience the healing effects of being grounded even while in their hotel room.

There will be over $10,000 in prizes given out throughout the event as well! Truth Caulkins, one of the speakers, brings us a world-class Longevity Tonic Bar which will be open all weekend long! The tonic bar team will be providing us with the most powerful, delicious healing drinks only available through this wonderful crew. The drinks served are scrumptious healing blends of herbs and superfoods, to help heal and optimize any individuals condition. They are a group of “ElixirCraft Masters“, for sure!

We are also excited to have a booth in the exhibition area for my company, SurThrival, all weekend long at the event! The whole SurThrival team with be present for the weekend, posted up at the booth, ready to share and connect with all of the participants! We will have our full product line up for sale at our booth, along with some surprises we are waiting to reveal for the first time at the conference! We are can’t wait to share our latest excitement with all of you there!

One last piece I would like announce, is that I will be one of the featured speakers in the extended workshop taking place the Monday after the conference concludes! This workshop is being called “The Masters Workshop”, and it will be a comprehensive lecture between myself, David Wolfe, and Truth Caulkins where we will go in depth about ElixirCrafting, the art of  tonic alchemy, the secrets to abundant health, complete cell rejuvenation, and longevity. There will also be a 90-minute panel, where the audience members can ask us all of their burning question!

I highly encourage you to join us in September at this event. Not only will you discover the latest advances in longevity technology that aren’t available anywhere else, but this event will be nothing short of one of the most uplifting, educational, and inspirational weekends of your life.

Three full days of major downloads of advanced information is priced at a mere $297! This is a huge deal considering the amount of knowledge, connections, goodies, and community you will leave with after the weekend!

Epic Eden Hot Springs Retreat! October 6th through the 10th, 2010

This is by far the most exciting event of the year for me! There is no other place on Earth that leaves me feeling so connected to the Land and to the Elements!

For many years now I have visited this oasis of the Sonoran desert, and it has been (by far) the most trans-formative location of my life.

Up until now these retreats have been a collaborative effort of my teachers and mentors David Wolfe and Kerri “Dancing Butterfly” .  They have facilitated the transformation of the countless people who have attended (myself included!).

This is in fact where my very first YouTube video was recorded, and the place where I began my career.

Now a new generation is taking up the call of stewarding this unique piece of Earth. Joy Light and Rebecca Astara are putting on this year’s event, Epic Eden HotSprings! I will be leading a tour of the Sacred grounds of Eden, visiting along the tour the six geo-thermal hot springs that spot the land. I am honored to share my knowledge and experience of my many years of visiting this land, with all of the retreaters!

This Oasis is beyond description, but let me attempt!

When standing on the hill, the high point of the property, surrounded by the 360 degrees of Arizona Mountains, looking down at the valley, the magick of this place becomes clear. The Sonoran desert is one of the harshest, driest environments on the planet. Yet, this oasis is green and lush, surrounded by inhospitable gravel-strewn desert.

It all begins with a small pool known as “The Source”. This sacred spring spills over and runs into the “Guitar Pool”, which is, as you may have guessed, shaped like a guitar! It is also known as the “Goddess Pool”, because the pool imitates the curvy shape of a Woman’s body. This is my favorite pool for soaking, as it is the quietest and most… sanctified.  All around it salt crystals grow right up out of the ground, dusting the area like a fresh snow!

This water runs down past a pool known as the “Emerald Pool” which is much hotter than the guitar pool. This pool is brilliantly green with exotic flora, and feeds down into the most popular pool, “Geronimo”!  This pool is named after the Apache Warrior who led the final free indigenous natives in the war against the early US!

And yes, he and his warriors really used this spring for healing and rejuvenation!

It is his, and the Apache spirit that is felt so strongly here!

This pool feeds down into the “Goddess Pool”, a hot spring pool the size of an Olympic swimming pool!  Swimming, bathing, or even just floating here is a truly unique and indescribable experience! It is less hot and more like tepid bathwater… I enjoy this pool for exercise and play!

This will be a time of powerful healing and lifelong transformation for all who attend. There will be many amazing work/play shop facilitators, body workers, and many new and old friends… Morning Yoga, Sun Gazing, Spring Water…. It is a chance to immerse yourself in the Temple of the Elemental!

Oh, and did I mention the food? The wonderful Chocolatree Cafe, based out of Sedona, will be preparing the food and overseeing the kitchen! Business partners Jen Warr of Chocolatree Cafe and Kelly Johnson of Sedona Superfoods, in combination come together to provide for us at the retreat this fall. They are a business of high integrity, bringing us the most top notch organic vegetarian cuisine! Each meal they serve up is delicious, nutritious, and uniquely prepared. Their cafe in Sedona is definitely the hot spot of the area and is a must visit while going through that town!

The experience of Eden is always hot, sunny, fiery energy… Burning off the old to make room for the new. The springs are so deeply nourishing, and there is always a view of the stars like few have ever seen. Soaking in these waters in the cold desert night looking deep into space is a gift that few ever give themselves!

Visit here to find out more about the retreat, and here to learn about all of the amazing facilitators for this epic retreat!

For me it is a place where I shed yet another layer of domestication and re-member what it means to be human.

And so my Road takes me West….

You coming?

Join us ~ October 6th-10th, 2010 for this Epic Experience of a Lifetime!

One of things I love most about Daniel’s information is that it it always evolving and dynamic. He studies and lives the concepts he teaches and is forever seeking a greater understanding of what it means to achieve and maintain the highest level of health we can. His most recent work being what he likes to call ‘Indigenous Nutrition & Physical Evolution’ … the base concept being that of acknowledging how many indigenous cultures seem to be physically and genetically superior to where we are now as a species, and that it would be wise to investigate why this is true.

Enjoy this 6 part video series that covers a full lecture given by Daniel during his event tour of California this past February, 2010.

I am also very excited to visit the markets and meet the locals!  Peruvian Alpaca garments are the best in the world, and my poncho, hat and gloves all come from there.  It is so great to get them locally and for the amazing prices that can only be had on such a visit!  Yay, gear!

This is your chance to meet the Superfoods, Medicinal Herbs, and Psychoactive plants of South America right there where they live and grow!

These retreats are limited to 10 people and they are already filled!  Contact info@rawflora to get on the waiting list!

OH, Wait!!! Did I mention that there is an optional trip to Machu Picchu?  I almost forgot.  There is an option to arrive on the early for a trip to the Ancient Incan City of Machu Picchu!  This has been a dream of mine for ages!  See you there?

I recently did a series of interviews with my friend Jonathan Landsman for Natural News University. We shot 16 videos in all, and you can see them all for free here at NaturalNewsUniversity.com.  When you go to the site you can just enter my name in the search bar to find the rest of the videos we produced.

Much of the material that I a presenting here is information that I have been teaching in events around North America this year, but haven’t really shared publicly on the internet.  I hope you will enjoy and I look forward to hearing what you think about them in the comments below!

Gratitude,

~Daniel
