Description
The Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter is a bestselling and influential book that examines the impact of modern, comfortable living on human physical, mental, and social well-being. Easter, a former journalist and health and fitness researcher, combines scientific evidence, personal experience, and real-life stories to show how excessive comfort in daily life reduces resilience, increases stress and depression, and prevents people from reaching their full potential. He introduces the concept of “beneficial discomfort” — controlled stress, physical challenge, hunger, or exertion that not only poses no harm but actually strengthens body and mind. Drawing on neuroscience and evolutionary psychology, Easter explains how the human brain becomes more creative and resilient when facing controlled challenges, yet modern life has removed many of these opportunities, leaving our bodies and minds ill-prepared for hardship. The book illustrates how a life of constant ease can lead to obesity, anxiety, chronic fatigue, lack of motivation, and a sense of meaninglessness.
