        • The persistence method is possibly one of the oldest forms of hunting, practiced long before the invention of bows and arrows, and the domestication of dogs. It is also known as the great dance, and together with the art of tracking, it has evolved into more sophisticated levels that are still practised today, by modern hunter-gatherers, in some parts of the world.

              • Epilogue

                Alex, James and I are going back to the Kalahari Desert in Botswana. On one level, these trips have a practical component - we are assessing and fostering tracking skills. But there is a symbolic level too - something happens deep in my psyche in the face of the wild. Certainly, last year's trip changed me fundamentally and prepared me for the love that was going to come into my life. We are intrigued to hear what has transpired since our last trip, what stories have been told around the campfires by the Bushman people.

                      • The Kalahari lion

                        Tracking the Kalahari lion is an intense experience of extreme endurance, grit and absolute commitment.

                        Few environments cultivate extreme mindfulness like the desert. There is no margin for error here and I consider my own fragility.

                        If you don’t yet know what that track is in your own life, you must discover it. In this final episode, I share some thoughts from what I have learnt, to help you on your path of discovery.
