The Zen of Therapy - Mark Epstein - Bog

"In The Zen of Therapy, Dr. Epstein reflects on a years worth of selected sessions with his patients and observes how, in the incidental details of a given hour, his Buddhist background influences the way he works. Meditation and psychotherapy each encourage a willingness to face life's difficulties with courage that can be hard to otherwise muster, and in this cross-section of life in his office, he emphasizes how therapy, an element of Western medicine, can in fact be considered a two-person meditation. Mindfulness, too, much like a good therapist, can hold our awareness for usand allow us to come to our senses and find inner peace."--
