Ive long admired Sayer for not only the depth of his research in the new science of health but also his poetic communication style. His first book provides a radical reframing of what our bodies are capable of and simple steps to unleash that potential.

This book is dedicated to Kelly Brogan, my beloved wife and partner, who, like a Force of Nature, turned my life upside down and inside out the moment I knew she existed. The alchemical crucible of our immense love inspired in me the courage to face and move beyond my deeply held fears, perceived limitations, and stories, and tap into the unlimited potential for physical and spiritual regeneration which I now know is buried deep within us all as a birthright.

Regenerate means to rejuvenate, revitalize, and renew. These words hold great promise, especially for so many of us who feel something is wrong, most often in our bodies but increasingly in our souls. We yearn for a feeling of peace, wholeness, and vitality, but experience our bodies as the fallible and vulnerable structures we have been made to believe them to be. In fact, we have been designed to naturally draw strength, energy, and healing from deep within rather to succumb like clockwork to the inevitable downward spiral of biological time. On the cellular level, our bodies have the innate power and ability to reverse damage, regenerate, and restore a directly felt experience of well being we have lost.
This isnt just wishful thinking. A signficant number of new studies in biomedical science confirms that our bodies are radically resilient and that all we need to do to reclaim our health and vitality is to eliminate sources of interference with our bodies innate, robust self-regenerating capacity. Our physical form represents eons of adaptation to and mastery over constantly changing conditions, including powerful forces of environmental and biological adversity. Our bodies have emerged from this crucible with veritable superpowers, not the least of which is our seemingly magical and irrepressible capacity for radical resilience.
