Description

For fans of Braiding Sweetgrass, The Future We Choose, and The Blue Zones, a book about the effect our relationship to nature has on our well-being and health.
**Winner of the Best Book Award from American Bookfest in the General Health category; the Silver award from Reader Views in the Health and Fitness Category; and the Bronze award from Reader Views in the Body/Mind/Spirit Category**

Our modern way of living is incompatible with our survival. Most of us intuitively know this truth, but almost everything in our society encourages us to ignore it. Dr. Wendy Johnson confronts this undeniable fact and breaks down how we think and act every day in ways that undermine our individual and collective well-being.

The antidotes to many of the causal factors of poor health--loneliness, industrial diets, systemic inequality, fear of death, profit-based healthcare--are relational, with each other and with the living earth. Through evidence from public health, sociology, anthropology, human ecology, and her experience as a family physician, Dr. Wendy Johnson will show you how:

We must incorporate an "ecosystem" perspective into modern medicine
What you ingest and where you live can reinforce or upset your body's delicate balance
Eliminating one organism in an ecosystem can affect all the others
Histories of trauma can be passed down for generations
Rekindling our relationships to non-human life is essential to our well-being
Being closer to death can release some of its power over us
Actions of communities will be stronger and more lasting than any individual efforts

You will leave with a clear vision of what a new society might look like, methods to accomplish this transformation, and concrete examples of where it is being done successfully.
