- Summary
- Before Epstein became a medical student at Harvard and began training as a psychiatrist, he immersed himself in Buddhism with influential teachers. The positive outlook of Buddhism and the meditative principle of living in the moment came to influence his study and practice of psychotherapy profoundly. This is Epstein's memoir of his early years as a student of Buddhism and of how Buddhism shaped his approach to therapy. It is also a practical guide to how a Buddhist understanding of psychological problems makes change for the better possible. Buddhism opened his eyes to another way of change. By chronicling how Buddhism and psychotherapy shaped his own growth, Epstein has written an intimate chronicle of the evolution of spirit and psyche, and an inviting guide for anyone seeking a new path and a new outlook on life.--From publisher description
