A remarkable exploration of the therapeutic relationship, Dr. Mark Epstein reflects on one year's worth of therapy sessions with his patients to observe how his training in Western psychotherapy and his equally long investigation into Buddhism, in tandem, led to greater awareness—for his patients, and for himself.
Throughout this deeply personal inquiry, one that
weaves together the wisdom of two worlds, Dr. Epstein illuminates the therapy
relationship as a spiritual friendship. He reveals how a therapist can help
patients cultivate the sense that there is something magical, something
wonderful, and something to trust running through our lives, no matter how
fraught they have been or might become. For when we realize how readily we have
misinterpreted our selves, when we stop clinging to our falsely conceived
constructs, when we touch the ground of being, we come
home.
