Synopsis

2025 Book of the Year Award from Best Holistic Life Magazine!

A BookFest 2024 Nonfiction Award Winner!

For greater well-being, we must adapt our modern lifestyle and live more in harmony with our natural and evolutionary selves. This scientific self-help book will guide you back to your origins.


While giving many benefits, aspects of modern society can also be harmful to our physical, mental, and cultural health. We can overcome many of these detriments if we better understand and express our primal self, which is largely encoded into our DNA.

On the Origin of Being outlines the misalignments between our genetic design and modern lifestyle that reduce our well-being and even cause disease. Jenny Powers, PhD in immunology, and Luke Comer, author and producer, pay homage to Charles Darwin by investigating the evolution of many human behaviors. They identify the origins of these behaviors in the single-cell organisms of billions of years ago and then trace them through primates, hominoids, and up the evolutionary chain to modern humans. They then demonstrate how to realign our behaviors to enjoy more vital, loving, and robust lives here and now. This self-help book provides concrete actions to take to reclaim our primal selves.

Book one of this three-part series addresses four behaviors that are most significant to our health: sleep, nutrition, work and rest, and our relationship with nature.
