If you are in the Portland area on Sunday, January 20 at 7pm check out Jaimal Yogis reading and book signing for "The Fear Project" at Powell's Books at 10th & Burnside.

From the "Fear Project" website:

Who among us has not been paralyzed by fear? In THE FEAR PROJECT, award-winning journalist and surfer Jaimal Yogis sets out to better understand fear – why does it so often dominate our lives, what makes it tick, and is there even a way to use it to our advantage? In the process, he plunges readers into white shark-infested waters, brings them along to surf 40+ foot waves in the dead of winter, and gives them access to some of the world’s best neuroscience labs, psychologists, and extreme athletes. In this entertaining, often laugh-out-loud narrative, Yogis also treats himself like a guinea pig for all of his research, pushing his own fears repeatedly to the limits—in his sport, in his life, and in love. Ultimately, Yogis shares with his readers the best strategies to emerge triumphant from even the most paralyzing of fears.

 Jaimal Yogis plans a 5 mile swim down the Willamette to the Burnside bridge prior to his reading...here's a link to the article
