Born to Sweat: The New Science of Heat, Health, and Performance. A Vail Health Learning Lab

Description

We were born to sweat. Come find out why it makes us stronger.

Join us as we welcome bestselling author and science journalist Bill Gifford for a provocative talk based on his new book, Hotwired, in which he challenges what we think we know about heat, discomfort, and human performance. Bill will share how heat can make us healthier, stronger, more resilient, and even happier. 

In this program, you’ll discover how practices like sauna and heat adaptation can boost longevity, mental health, and physical performance, and why short-term discomfort may be one of our most underused tools for enhancing long-term well-being. 

Bill will be joined by Dr. Charles Raison, Director of the Vail Health Behavioral Health Innovation Center, and Dr. Ashley Mason, Vail Healthspan Advisor.
