With the avalanche of information we get every day, closing down our minds and hearts seems to be the only way to survive. We close off to ourselves by compulsively checking our devices. We close off to each other by getting caught in echo chambers of outrage. But what if there’s another way? In this climate of distraction and division, Nate Klemp’s "Open: Living With an Expansive Mind in a Distracted World" offers a path back to a way of living that is expansive, creative and filled with wonder.

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