Acerca de esta escucha

“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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“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)

beyond expectations

there's always been this inexplicable feeling whenever I would come home from a big adventure. I've tried forever to explain to people why I go do those crazy things or how it makes me feel. this book is everything I wish I could have said and everything I've been experiencing and exactly why I get out there. this book is beautifully written never mind the great story about his Arctic adventure, and it's all backed up by science. without being boring. I wish I could give this book a 10 and I wish I could give a copy to every person who struggles and can't explain their own anxiety.

Amazing story and scientific data

I had no idea when audible suggested this book to me that I would like it. I was out of ideas on how to spend my credit do I went with it and got this one. I had no idea that many of the people I follow and things that I do (go ruck) would be cited in this book. It was fascinating!

Inspiring and Informative

This book was so well written and Michael’s storytelling is relatable, interesting, and inspiring. The amount of effort put into the thorough research from scientists, professors, and experts in different fields was extremely informative. It left me with a long list of people to research and explore their work.

Get uncomfortable, your existence depends on it.

Really good. An interesting personal story interwoven into the science of the soft species we are becoming. I have bought this book for both my teenage boys to read as well as recommend it to anyone who is not totally immersed into the science of why we need to be less comfortable, we need to be harder to kill.

Perfect book for 2021

Absolutely the best book for everyone to read in 2021! There is so much excellent content within the pages of The Comfort Crisis! Michael has done a tremendous job with this book and his findings along with his experiences related to rucking, hunting and just being outdoors has fired me up to do more of those things! I’ve told all of my family and friends about this book and my wife is currently reading it as well. I can’t wait for his next book release, whatever it may be!

Highly recommend you purchase this book today!!

Great book about the benefit of hard things

This book was awesome. Tons of scientific evidence about how our desire for and tendency to seek comfort is making us unhappy, sick, weak and overall changing our lives for the worse.
