The unbelievably true story of a 40 day fast, beating cancer, dying, coming back to life and ego death. This book begins the Hard Times series, which follows up on the success of Stefan Aarnio's bestselling book, Hard Times Create Strong Men.
A raw and honest account of a man who doubted the western medical system and beat cancer on his own terms. Through fasting, injection of B17 and other eastern practices (breathwork, meditation, pain release massage etc.)
Also includes an incredibly raw and gripping account of his descent into brief insanity after dipping dangerously low on electrolytes.
Lots of interesting takeaways. I feel grateful for the human experience and for another signpost on my path to God.
This guy is just selling his own lazy ramblings! His books go no where. Like trying to teach a pig to sing. It waists you're time and annoys the pig? Spend your money else where. A painful reading experience!
First of all RIP Stefan Aarnio, he was a great writer and businessman. Secondly, this book was amazing. This book has Stefan reflect on his many regrets in life in the face of death. The vulnerability throughout this book and the realness of it all is what made me love this book.
