Finding Sisu : In Search Of Courage, Strength And Happiness The Finnish Way

Finnish-born writer Katja Pantzar was raised and educated in Canada, where the consumerist and materially obsessed culture left her feeling empty and unhappy. When she received treatment for depression in her mid-20s, the doctor treating her simply prescribed medication and sleeping pills, no thought given to her lifestyle.

After moving to Finland, Katja discovered sisu: the Finnish approach to well being defined by a special kind of resilience, grit and courage. She embraced this way of living and experienced a dramatic turnaround in her health and happiness.

Simple, functional exercise (as simple as riding her bike to work), the Nordic diet,spending time in nature and water together with a more courageous outlook, all served to transform Pantzar's life: her anxieties, fatigue and pain left behind in the sea.

In Finding Sisu, Pantzar offers an honest (no place is perfect - Finland is not an exception) and uplifting account of her physical and psychological health transformation from a slightly lethargic depressive into an energetic optimist. She examines the link between sisu and the Nordic reputation for excellent wellbeing and overall life satisfaction, and looks at the ways in which we, too, can apply sisu to our lives - wherever we may be.

Finding Sisu is a personal but also practical approach to the power of this 500-year-old philosophy and how it can help us all to lead healthier, happier - and braver lives.

My second pair and what they look like after 2 years
Size: 10.5, Color: New Black05, Size: 10.5, Color: New Black05
I wanted to write a review on these shoes. This is my second purchase. I bought the first pair 2 years ago and the bottoms started wearing out, after all it was 2 years. I read reviews saying that they did not hold up well. My pictures show before and after. The reason I purchased again is because I am impressed with the quality and comfort for the money.

Comfortable at First, But Did Not Last Long
Size: 9.5, Color: Cs05 White
I used these Feethit men’s slip on running shoes for about six months, and my experience was a bit mixed. Starting with the positives, they are pretty comfortable right out of the box. They are lightweight and easy to slip on, which makes them great for quick trips or casual everyday wear. The fit was true to size for me, maybe even a little on the loose side, which I did not mind for a relaxed feel. However, the durability just was not there. After about six months, I started to notice wear and tear, and eventually I got a tear in the sole right under my heel. That made them really uncomfortable to walk in, especially for longer periods. Once that happened, it was basically game over for using them regularly. Because of that, I would not recommend these for heavy use, workouts, or long days on your feet. They seem better suited for light, occasional wear rather than something you rely on daily. Overall, they are comfortable and easy to wear at first, but they do not hold up over time. If you are looking for something long lasting, you may want to look at other options.

Won’t Fit No Matter What
Size: 9.5, Color: Cs05 White, Size: 9.5, Color: Cs05 White
These shoes don’t stretch so I was unable to get my foot in the shoe. They are my size, but the opening has no stretch so you can’t get your foot in the shoe. I tried several different ways and then realized even though the shoe is the correct size, the opening was too small. They made the opening for the shoe probably the same size on all shoes, so unless you have kids feet you won’t even be able to slide them on. I’ve never had a shoe I couldn’t get on. I’ve worn Sketchers no problem. This is design flaw and I highly recommend you don’t buy!

Really comfortable!!!
Size: 11, Color: New Black05
These tennis shoes are so comfortable!!! I would recommend anybody to get these, especially if you do a lot of walking they’re very light but have a good heal support and the soul is nice and soft and cushy.. They’re also so cute. I got the blue ones and red also.
