For the past twenty-five years,Belinda Kirk's professional life has revolved around adventure. She's seen it change people first hand: turning the timid into the confident,the addicted into the recovering,and the lost into the intentionally wandering. As a force for change,adventure can be powerful like few others.This book is about this transformational power,and the first to explore why adventure is essential to our wellbeing. From managing anxiety and overcoming fear,to finding self-worth and building interpersonal connections,to being happier,healthier,and more playful,ADVENTURE REVOLUTION draws lessons from more than two decades of experience leading groups into the wilderness around the globe. Illuminated with Belinda's personal narrative,her own research with modern hunter-gatherers,and the latest findings in neuroscience and behaviour,ADVENTURE REVOLUTION presents a compelling case for ditching the living room in favour of a longer,happier,and more adventurous life.
