Wake up and reclaim your one
wild and precious life.New York Times bestselling author Sarah
Wilson shows you how in this radical spiritual guidebook, the book we
need NOW.

Many of us are living with the sense that
things are not right with the world and are in a state of spiritual PTSD. 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. 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. Drawing on science,
literature, philosophy and the wisdom of some of the world’s leading experts,
and her personal journey, Wilson offers a hopeful path forward to the life we
love. En route, she shows us how to wake up and reconnect with life using “wild
practices” that include:

?        
Hike.
Embrace the “walking cure” as great minds throughout history have.

?        
Go
to your edge. Do what scares you and embrace discomfort daily.
