12-Hour Rowing Shifts Beyond the Raging Sea: State of Mind

    • Science

"If I don't close my eyes for literally two, three, five minutes, I'm done for.”
Omar Samra had to cope with an extreme bout of seasickness. Omar Nour had to pick up extra shifts. On top of all that, a huge wave turns their boat upside down and puts them on the brink of death. How do you activate your calm response when your body is aching? And does going through stressful experiences shield us from similar ones in the future?
