Good Stress by Jeff Krasno offers a groundbreaking exploration into the modern paradox of health and wellness. As the founder and CEO of Commune Media, a global wellness platform, Jeff thought he was in good shape—until a diabetes diagnosis turned his world upside down. Faced with a reality that seemed incongruous with his lifestyle, Jeff embarked on a journey of self-discovery, interviewing over 300 medical experts and diving deep into the science of health to reclaim his vitality.

In this transformative guide, Jeff shares the profound insights he uncovered about the true state of our health in the modern world. He reveals how the conveniences and comforts of contemporary life—endless food options, sedentary jobs, digital overload, and disconnection from nature—are wreaking havoc on our well-being, leading to chronic diseases like diabetes, dementia, heart disease, and more. Jeff argues that while our ancestors thrived on scarcity and stress, today’s “chronic ease” is undermining our bodies and minds.

Good Stress distills these insights into a practical program designed to help readers reset their health. Drawing from his conversations with luminaries such as Gabor Maté, Mark Hyman, Marianne Williamson, and Sharon Salzberg, Jeff presents 10 evidence-based practices, including:

• Fasting
• Cold and Heat Exposure
• Light Therapy
• Consuming “Stressed Plants” (Plants get stressed, too!)
• The Techniques & Benefits of Stressful Conversations
• And more...

For each practice, Jeff shares compelling personal stories—like how Wim Hof finally convinced him to embrace ice baths—alongside the latest scientific research and practical tips. He provides a step- by-step guide on how to safely incorporate these techniques into your daily life, helping you build resilience and restore balance.
Good Stress offers a refreshing and relatable approach to health, demonstrating that with the right kind of stress, we can all thrive in the modern world.
