Seth Hughes is driven by a determination to remind humans of their intrinsic relationship with the natural world.

He believes passionately that the modern human is both lost and disempowered, suffering from a kind of collective amnesia about their roots - but that they have an opportunity now to reconnect with the knowledge - and the simple joy - of our indigenous ancestors.

Seth’s professional background is in filmmaking but more recently he decided to adapt these skills for his own brand of digital storytelling. Sharing stories on social media of our ancestors - of foraging, of folklore and of the pleasure to be had exercising in wilder places. His videos have really struck an emotional chord, frequently garnering millions of views.

In addition to his filmmaking and digital storytelling, in the South West of England Seth runs a Men’s group where they connect with each other through Natural Lifestyle practices, such as barefoot running, tree climbing and movement play - helping men to emotionally ground themselves in nature.
