Torkil Færø

Torkil Færø is a doctor, photographer, adventurer, and author.

It’s difficult to pigeonhole Torkil. He decided early on to do everything in his power to make the most out of life. This has taken him to doctor’s offices across the country, from Kristiansand in the south to Kautokeino in the north, from Askim in the east to Solund in the west. It has also taken him across the seven seas, with his own family on a circumnavigation.

He has traveled to over 80 countries on 5 continents and speaks 8 languages. As a photographer, he has held exhibitions, created photo books, and conducted over 60 photo workshops in 11 countries.

In his quest for how to make the most of life, he has found some keys. These are the ones he now feels responsible for conveying to others. From the vantage point of a doctor, he sees that many people become ill due to poor lifestyle choices and inadequate life management. Instead of treating people after they become ill, he wants to help them prevent illness and improve quality of life. This involves taking responsibility for one’s own health.

Therefore, he has written the self-help books “The Camera Cure” and “The Pulse Cure,” both of which have become bestsellers. “The Camera Cure” is about how to use photography as a method for better life management. “The Pulse Cure” is about how to use heart rate monitors to achieve balance in the autonomic nervous system and achieve good stress balance.
