This One Wild and Precious Life by Sarah Wilson

Sarah Wilson is the author of the New York Times bestsellers first, we make the beast beautiful: a new story about anxiety, which Mark Manson described as 'the best book on living with anxiety that I've ever read', and I Quit Sugar, along with eleven cookbooks that have been published in fifty-two countries. We are being called upon, individually and as a society, to forge a new path and to find a new way of living. The time has come to boldly, wildly, imagine better. If you can get 3.5 per cent of a population to participate in sustained, non-violent protest, change happens. Walking in nature reconnects us with ourselves, and with our true purpose. How to have an active practice - beyond the 'lite' 'rainbows and unicorns' - and use it to change the world. Embrace poetry, deep reading, art, and classical music to light up your intellect. Break the cycle of mindless consumption and get light with your life. Do what scares you and embrace discomfort daily. En route, she leads us through a series of 'wildly awake' and joyful practices for reconnecting again that include: Drawing on science, literature, philosophy, the wisdom of some of the world's leading experts, and her personal journey, Wilson weaves a one-of-a-kind narrative that lights the way back to the life we love. this one wild and precious life opens our eyes to how we got here and offers a radically hopeful path forward. Sarah Wilson argues that this sense of despair and disconnection is ironically what unites us - that deep down, we are all feeling that same itch for a new way of living. We have retreated, morally and psychologically we are experiencing a crisis of disconnection - from one another, from our true values, from joy, and from life as we feel we are meant to be living it. The climate crisis, political polarisation, racial injustice and coronavirus have left many of us in a state of spiritual PTSD. Will you sleep through the revolution? Or do you want to wake up and reclaim your one wild and precious life? A hopeful path forward in fractured world.
