June Cohen
In The Great Remembering, June Cohen, co-creator of TED Talks and Masters of Scale, travels across cultures, continents, and centuries to uncover a striking truth: for thousands of years, humans developed “wisdom systems”—embodied practices designed to heal the mind, strengthen communities, and restore meaning in times of upheaval. And today, cutting-edge science is beginning to prove they worked.
From epic physical challenges and communal festivals to sauna and cold plunge, psychedelic medicine, and shared rituals of grief, these ancient practices weren’t superstition—they were sophisticated systems built on deep observation of the human body, brain, and social bonds. Modern neuroscience, psychology, and physiology are now corroborating their benefits: reducing depression and anxiety, improving resilience and immune function, strengthening social connection, and restoring a sense of purpose.
Blending immersive storytelling, reporting from the frontiers of science, and interviews with leading researchers, healers, and practitioners, The Great Remembering reframes wellness, mental health, and community not as individual optimization problems—but as collective, embodied experiences we were never meant to lose.
The Great Remembering is a bold, hopeful invitation to rethink how we live now—by reclaiming what humanity once knew.

Commentaires
“With compassionate curiosity about what makes us human, June takes us on an archeological tour of the ancient yearning pulsating beneath all of our evolving technologies and changing moral fashions – to make sense of our mortality and rejoice in our aliveness, to salve our suffering and give shape to our joy. What a revelation, what an invitation, to discover that people who had no notion of gravity, genetics, or democracy answered the questions we live with more wisely than we do – a beckoning to rethink how we make of our fragile embodiment a cathedral of meaning." (Maria Popova, Brainpickings, Marginalian)
