🜂 Welcome to a new rhythm of rebellion.
In this episode, Gary introduces a bold new format and philosophy for The Rewilding Your Soul Podcast — now evolving into The Rebel’s Rhythm.This isn’t self-help. It’s self-remembrance.It’s about living with rhythm instead of reaction — and rediscovering what makes us deeply, beautifully human.
💡 In this episode
Gary shares three important updates shaping the next evolution of this work:
1️⃣ A New Series — The Fear Beneath EverythingA six-part journey exploring the quiet panic beneath modern life — and how death anxiety, perfectionism, and disconnection shape our world.Through reflection and compassion, we’ll explore how understanding fear softens its grip and brings us back to life.
2️⃣ A New Format — The Rebel’s RhythmStarting this week, new episodes will release every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday at 5AM for those who want to begin their day grounded in awareness.
Tuesdays: Reflections and stories that awaken insight.
Thursdays: EchoWork Sessions — emotional and musical embodiment practices (for paid subscribers).
Sundays: Stillpoint Letters — gentle integrations for rest, renewal, and reconnection (for paid subscribers).
3️⃣ A New Way to Go Deeper — Paid SubscriptionsBeginning Friday, paid members will gain full access to the complete rhythm — and a growing ecosystem of transformational tools, teachings, and community.
🎧 What is EchoWork?
EchoWork is the practice of listening to what’s already moving inside you.Each session blends breath, reflection, and music to help emotions complete their natural rhythm — releasing the echoes of what was left unfinished.
For this first series, we’ll journey through six Pink Floyd songs that mirror the architecture of fear and awakening:
1️⃣ Time — the quiet panic beneath productivity2️⃣ Us and Them — the illusion of safety and separation3️⃣ Comfortably Numb — the fear of feeling4️⃣ Sheep — repression, conformity, and false virtue5️⃣ Hey You — the body’s call for reconnection6️⃣ Wish You Were Here — love, loss, and what we keep alive
📘 The Six-Week Journey
1️⃣ The Quiet Panic — how Becker’s Denial of Death reveals the hidden fear driving modern life.2️⃣ The Myth of Safety — why control and perfectionism keep us separate from life itself.3️⃣ The Fear of Feeling — learning to let numbness melt into presence, deepened through EchoWork.4️⃣ Repression and Religion — how moral purity and ideology mask our terror of chaos.5️⃣ The Body Remembers the End — embracing mortality through embodiment.6️⃣ What We Keep Alive — discovering legacy as presence, not performance.
