Some great advice, tips, and general knowledge of the Finnish (and Nordic) way of life. Such a practical way to look at life. Slower, more deliberate, and ideal ... IMHO. I picked up some steps I want to take to be healthier and happier. (

I read the chapter I was most interested in, about winter swimming (outdoors). Browsed some other chapters.

Hygge and now 'Sisu'. I'm sure there are some people who can find wisdom in these philosophies. Whether the Finnish people generally follow this philosophy was less clear. And that lack of specific information was one of the major flaws in Pantzar's book. Much of the philosophy in 'Finnish Way' lacked any data-based support for its claims. It's great that folk go outside all year round and that physical activity is so valued. Immune system response to the activity is probably not news but winter swims and then saunas? And other claims? I'd have found the memoir less new age if some medical data were provided. (

Ended up I'll again put back on Prednisone, sometimes I think I can feel my bones crumbling from all the steroids I have been prescribed over the last five years. Anyway, always trying to find a different way of managing my flare ups, and so I am drawn to books that show people handling things in different ways.

SISU
Pronounced "see-su"
A Finnish concept that dates back to the 1950's.
A unique type of fortitude, of resilience, of not giving up in the face of a challenge, big or small, that anyone can develop.

See, I needed some or all of that, and I quite enjoyed this book. Much common sense but also some little things with big health benefits. Cold water swimming for mental health and pain relief. Well, I don't live where that is a possibility, I live near a river but not fond of river snakes so.......I tried a cold , few minutes shower, I am very suggestible, and I think it helped a bit, made me feel relaxed anyway. Will try again. Good tips on diet, exercise, just moving, and much on a positive mental outlook. I'll keep practicing, can't hurt and may help. (
