In order to achieve greater well-being, it is crucial that we adapt our modern lifestyle and strive to live in greater harmony with our natural and evolutionary selves. Although modern society offers numerous benefits, certain aspects can also have negative impacts on our physical, mental, and cultural health. By gaining a deeper understanding of our primal selves, which are largely influenced by our DNA, we can overcome many of these detriments.

The book "On the Origin of Being" examines the mismatches between our genetic makeup and the ways in which we live today, leading to a reduction in our overall well-being and even the development of diseases. Authors Jenny Powers, who holds a PhD in immunology, and Luke Comer, a renowned author and producer, pay tribute to Charles Darwin by delving into the evolution of various human behaviors. They trace these behaviors back to single-cell organisms billions of years ago, through primates, hominoids, and up to modern humans. By understanding this evolutionary journey, they provide insights on how we can realign our behaviors to lead more fulfilling, loving, and vibrant lives in the present.

The first installment of this trilogy focuses on four key behaviors that significantly impact our health: sleep, nutrition, work-life balance, and our connection with nature. By addressing these behaviors and making positive changes, we can enhance our overall well-being and lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
