With the avalanche of information we get every day\, cl osing down our minds and hearts seems to be the only way to survive. We cl ose off to ourselves by compulsively checking our devices.

In this climate of distraction and division\, Nate Kl emp&rsquo\;s \;Open \;offers a path back to a way of living that is expansive\, creative\, and filled with wonder.

\n

Drawing on personal stories\, scientific findings\, and tradition al wisdom\, Klemp explores why we close down when faced with stressors or threats―then reveals why training ourselves to fully engage even wi th discomfort\, pain\, and sadness leads to greater well-being in the long run. \;
