A powerful social experiment reminding us all to wake up!
Good read by Buddhist-oriented psychiatrist, Mark Epstein. Only thing he fails to mention in the article (perhaps it's in his book) relates to the "everyday" traumas that result from issues of power and privilege - racism, sexism, classism, ethnocentrism, etc.
"There’s a confusion in each of us, a sickness, really: selfishness. But there’s also a cure.

I wanted to share the online launch Dr. Richard A. Heckler’s book, Waking Up, Alive. Richard is a friend and colleague. Featured on Good Morning, America, 20/20, and NPR, Waking Up, Alive teaches a great deal about overcoming enormous emotional hardship, what we now refer to as resilience. It’s been a great help to people suffering, and for people like many of us, whose life’s work is to help people who are suffering. Richard traveled the U.S. over a three-year period to inte...rview people who attempted suicide and recovered to where their lives were happy, fulfilled, and productive the first time that that part of recovery had been studied so deeply. Waking Up, Alive is a compassionate yet unflinching look into the hearts and minds of people who encountered enormous emotional suffering and moved beyond that suffering. The book is a powerful read, and a very inspiring chronicle of healing. Check it out at richardahecklerphd.com. See more
