#96. Technology, Neural Network & the Need for Systems Thinking in Modern America, and More — Alan Booker

What are systems thinking? Why is the analogy of "nature is a machine" so wrong? what are neural networks?

The guest of honor this week is Alan Booker. Alan is the founder of the Institute of Integrated Regenerative Design, a cloud computing expert, herbal medicine, and integrated health practitioner.

Alan has deep knowledge of dynamic systems thinking, technology, neural network, and nature. He also has a holistic approach to making America sustainable again. He is the creator of the Integrated Regenerative Design framework and the Biocompatible Design standards.

We dive deep into critical thinking, the addiction science of technology, why we were all indigenous groups, the power of neural networks, and more.

With hundreds of nights spent in the field, Alan also teaches wilderness survival, tracking, bird language, primitive fire making, and wildcrafting. As a result of studying herbal medicine for nearly 20 years, Alan also emphasizes how the proper use of real food and nourishing herbs can help build a foundation for lasting health.

In short, I need Alan as my partner on any camping trip or wildness-related activities moving forward.

Some of his notable life experiences include 40 years of practicing and instructing various martial arts, being a trained classical pianist and composer, and also leading many other national cross-organizational training.

Alan Booker currently resides in Alabama, dedicating his life to reimagining the regenerative health and permaculture landscape in modern America.
