Jon Young and colleagues (2010; 2019) collaborate with the San Bushmen of the Kalahari, a band culture that has been around for at least 140,000 years ). The Bushmen approach self-actualization in ways that are reflected in the writings and advice of indigenous peoples around the world. Their approach may be most relevant today.
