A Radical Approach to Wellness: Embracing the Healthy Deviant

By Pilar Gerasimo

A self-help guide that rejects one-size-fits-all dieting and health advice, offering practical strategies and tools for getting healthy your way.

What kind of society makes being healthy and happy so difficult that only a single-digit percentage of the population can hope to pull it off? The answer: A sick society.

And within a sick society – one where illness, anxiety, and depression are the prevailing norms – what does it mean to be one of the few people to beat those unhealthy odds? It means bucking a lot of your society’s norms and rejecting a lot of its conventional health prescriptions. It also means acknowledging a disturbing truth: If you aren’t breaking the rules, you’re probably breaking yourself.

That’s the simple, provocative philosophy behind The Healthy Deviant, one seasoned health journalist’s quest to reframe healthy choices as a positive form of social rebellion.
