With the avalanche of information we get e very day\, closing down our minds and hearts seems to be the only way to s urvive. We close off to ourselves by compulsively checking our devices. We close to each other by getting caught in echo chambers of outrage. But wh at if there&rsquo\;s another way? In this climate of distraction and divis ion\, Nate Klemp&rsquo\;s \;Open \;offers a path back to a way of living that is expansive\, creative\, and filled with wonder.
\nDraw ing on personal stories\, scientific findings\, and traditional wisdom\, K lemp explores why we close down when faced with stressors or threats†•then reveals why training ourselves to fully engage even with discomfor t\, pain\, and sadness leads to greater well-being in the long run. \;
