Solocast: Climb The Mountain


Listen Later

This past week I spent 8 days in the Eastern Sierras.

While I originally went for nature therapy, hiking, movement, and connecting with friends, I wound up experiencing an NDE.

It was the second time I was gifted one of these in 2018, except this time it happened at 12,000 feet.

Illuminated by a full moon, and trying to sleep while laying on the cold gravel in a small tent at the Mount Whitney trail camp, I felt my heart pounding fast and began to realize: I couldn't breathe.

After 45 minutes of attempted conscious breathing to calm my nervous system, positive affirmations, and canister oxygen, I finally accepted the truth of what had happened: AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness)

I made the call.

At 1230am, myself and a friend packed up to leave 3 other men to summit that morning while we both walked down the trail with headlamps to lower ground.

So I wouldn't die.

I recovered, slept, and I write this message to you feeling great, thanks to my decision to listen to my body.

My survival brain did me well, it kept me alive.

Weight loss, however, does NOT have to feel like this.

If losing weight feels like you can't breathe, or if you know someone you care about that feels this way, please share with them the live Q&A link with David Zappasodi tomorrow at 11am PST (2pm EST). Click here then tap "Get Reminder" and tag them in the comments.
