The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter Book Summary

Discover the evolutionary mind and body benefits of living at the edges of your comfort zone and reconnecting with the wild—from the New York Times bestselling author of Scarcity Brain.

“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 author of The Book of Boundaries

“Michael Easter’s genius is that he puts data around the edges of what we intuitively believe. His work has inspired many to change their lives for the better.”—Dr. Peter Attia, author of Outlive

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 thirty-three-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.

Interesting book, but…... Did he say that homohabilis (sp) stood about 5’10” tall? Not sure about that…otherwise I feel like this book was worth listening to.

Worth it!. Worth the money and time to read.

Profoundly Impactful. Just what I needed. A reminder that life has likely gotten a little too easy and sadly the consequences are literally deadly. Have already started to make small adjustments in my daily life. More will follow.

Outstanding. A deep dive into the spirituality and connectedness acquired from prolonged remote Alaskan expedition. Very good life hacks and a good insight into the biological options to making us healthier mentally and physically.

Not very useful. Generally, books like this tend to be a mixture of a series of short stories paired with actionable information. Instead, all we get is a long-winded series of stories of the author doing impressive things that somewhat coalesce into a vague point that along the idea that you shouldn’t be spending too much time in your “seventy-two degree, temperature-controlled apartment.”

Perfecto. Me gusta la libra

Great book. Easy reading, Super interesting, and I learned so much about humans and our lack of self knowledge.

Great read!. Read this while doing 75Hard…love the idea of rucking and will be adding that to my workouts. This book was very well written and I’ve already recommended to friends.

Awesome Book. Great reading with Lots of new ideas

This Book is Life Changing. I’ve read dozens of self-improvement, productivity, and theory books. This one crushes all of them. The real life experiences of the author are tied to how we experience life around us, and he succinctly teaches us why our perspectives are altered by the comforts of modern life. I’m inspired and can’t wait to get out there (more)!

Nice balance in writing.. Writer does a good job of mixing the story with the purpose and facts to back it up. Good read.

Amazing. Great balance between his own personal adventure and the adventures (and scientific findings) of others.

This is a must read to anyone needing enlightenment. This book enlightened me on how doing the uncomfortable makes you comfortable.

Great information. Lots of great information I can use in my classroom for motivation…also for myself. Thanks.

It is good. Nice read of change. Gives lots of health research while tying it back to his own experience

I loved this book. Interesting informative, thrilling and hilarious at times. Michael Easter has inspired me to live better life and to push myself beyond my comfort zone.

An uncomfortable realisation. Mind blowing realisations about how our comfort is slowly killing us. Hopefully I can now apply some changes to my life. Ideally it will now be longer and happier.

Exhilarating escape from our daily comforts. I have read much on exercise, nutrition, mental health and the human condition but I found this book incredibly engaging from cover to cover. Told through an overarching narrative interspersed with diversions of science, reflection, evolutionary concepts and everything in between I took something from every page and it left me eager to make changes in my own life and find a new (ancient) way of living that works for me. I cannot recommend this book enough and it even managed to help me to consider new perspectives on hunting and respecting in a much more deeply connected way the meat that I eat and the animal it came from.
