Zoe Tryon: The Jungle Within

VividLife’s Ed and Deb Shapiro welcome Zoe Tryon, Enviro-babe, indigo-phile, writer, adventurer, student, activist, teacher, nomad and pilgrimto to discuss her upcoming book ‘The Jungle Within’ about her experiences and lessons learned living in the jungle

 

Her mother was a confidante of Prince Charles and she counts an impressive roster of celebrities and royals as friends. Now society girl Zoë Tryon is an eco-warrior living in the remote Ecuadorean rainforest

 

Zoë Tryon grew up between the wilds of the English countryside and London.  She  has always had a passion for wild places, she suspected that indigenous people may have had a better idea of how to be truly happy, than we in the modern world do. So she went to study anthropology at Manchester University, in England and then at Sydney University, in Australia. However books did not satiate her quest for real knowledge so she set off to live with indigenous peoples to learn from them, to find out how she could best support them in protecting their lands and culture, and to bring back some of their wisdom and worldviews to her own tribe in the Western world. http://zoetryon.com/
