Principles are sacred and powerful guiding codes of behavior. The following principles are the driving force within our own lives and also lonerwolf.
Everything that we write, create, and offer on this website is ruled by one or more of these eight core principles:

1. Walk your own path

Embrace solitude. Allow yourself to be different. Honor your inner wolf. Permit yourself to be an outsider. Go the path less traveled. Find your meaning in life. Listen to your Soul’s calling. Challenge the status quo. Dare to be unorthodox. Celebrate non-conformity.

2. Be true to yourself

Practice radical authenticity. Be self-sovereign. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. Do what feels true and honest to you. Defend your integrity. Listen to your calling.

3. Be a rebel

Question everything. Be in the world, but not of the world. Be a free spirit. Rebel against the norm. Embrace your inner misfit. Celebrate your wild and untamable Self. Don’t accept anything unless it makes sense. Ask, “Is this true?

4. Be passionate and sincere

Practice deep sincerity. Be fervent about the pursuit of truth, depth, and understanding. Be open, receptive, and humble. Be genuine and serious about the inner work and spiritual path. Be wholehearted (not lukewarm).

5. Be fiercely discerning

See through the veil of deception. Unmask falsehood and hypocrisy, both within yourself and others, compassionately. Illuminate the darkness and practice shadow work. Explore what reality versus illusion is. Be discerning and clear-minded. Ask, “How am I/others being dishonest?”

Discover and dissolve the blockages obscuring your Inner Light. Listen to your intuition.

7. Embrace your humanity and divinity

Permit yourself to be both human and divine. Practice embodied and down-to-earth spirituality. Integrate spiritual practice with psychological growth and healing. Strive to wake up and grow up. Use logic and intuition. Ground spirituality in daily life. Seek integration, balance, Wholeness, and to unify all parts of your nature. Honor your wild nature and divine spark of Soul.
