Description
“If you've been looking for something different to level up your health, fitness, and personal growth, this is it.” (Melissa Urban, Whole30 CEO and New York Times best-selling author)
Discover the evolutionary mind and body benefits of living at the edges of your comfort zone and reconnecting with the wild.
In many ways, we’re more comfortable than ever before. But could our sheltered, temperature-controlled, overfed, underchallenged lives actually be the leading cause of many our most urgent physical and mental health issues? In this gripping investigation, award-winning journalist Michael Easter seeks out off-the-grid visionaries, disruptive genius researchers, and mind-body conditioning trailblazers who are unlocking the life-enhancing secrets of a counterintuitive solution: discomfort.
Easter’s journey to understand our evolutionary need to be challenged takes him to meet the NBA’s top exercise scientist, who uses an ancient Japanese practice to build championship athletes; to the mystical country of Bhutan, where an Oxford economist and Buddhist leader are showing the world what death can teach us about happiness; to the outdoor lab of a young neuroscientist who’s found that nature tests our physical and mental endurance in ways that expand creativity while taming burnout and anxiety; to the remote Alaskan backcountry on a demanding 33-day hunting expedition to experience the rewilding secrets of one of the last rugged places on Earth; and more.
Along the way, Easter uncovers a blueprint for leveraging the power of discomfort that will dramatically improve our health and happiness, and perhaps even help us understand what it means to be human. The Comfort Crisis is a bold call to break out of your comfort zone and explore the wild within yourself.

Commentaires
“Changes the way we think about the modern world and how everyday conveniences are eroding our understanding of what it mean to be human.” (Richard Dorment, editor in chief, Men’s Health)
“I read The Comfort Crisis in three straight sittings and was so motivated and inspired that I immediately made changes to my daily routines. Two months later, I've never been fitter, more self-confident, or happier. If you've been looking for something different to level up your health, fitness, and personal growth, THIS IS IT.” (Melissa Urban, Whole30 CEO and six-time New York Times best-selling author)
“Entertaining and enlightening, Easter’s quest for a ‘rewilded’ diet, creative boredom, and other sensation - restoring discomforts is chock-full of solid science as well as a rollicking adventure.” (Dan Fagin, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Toms River: A Story of Science and Salvation)

Excellent mix of story and science
The author weaves themes of wellbeing science into à story about hunting in Alaska in waythat is both informative and interesting. I've heard some of the science before via Huberman et al, but this was a nice thought-provoking way of hearing it. Will definitely be relistening some chapters and thinking about how I can implement some of the wisdom into my life.

Amazing, thought-provoking story
A thoroughly researched must-read for anyone who has succumbed to the comfort of modern society. Though I needed little convincing, as I’d already come to some of these conclusions through my own study and life experience, I’m “comforted” to have clear, documented confirmation of the health dangers and benefits explained. I hope to apply these precious lessons to my own life and share them with anyone who cares to listen. Thank you, Mr Easter!

A long story about hunting in Alaska
I was disappointed after reading such positive reviews. Honestly there are some interesting insights to take from this book but there is just too much detail about the whole hunting experience that seemed like it didn’t add value…. I was looking for much more pragmatic content and more solid data in support of these arguments, which seem at times anecdotal.
