Rise Above It: A Psychiatrist Looks within for a Higher Meaning to Life

By John Clarkson and Roy Fenton

Over forty years ago, Dr. Pecci recognized the value of meditation and the door that daily practice opened to inspirational thoughts. He shared some of his early meditative insights, many of which are included in this book, with his friend, Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, who was deeply moved by their simple yet profound wisdom, and she volunteered, many years later, to write the Foreword to this book just prior to her death in early 2004. While it is written in simple and easy to undertand language, each page contains a deeper wisdom that warrants repeated reading to be fully digested. Whether you are lonely, feel overwhelmed by your daily burdens, or suffer from grief, you will be able to find words of comfort within its pages.

Fantastic Insight

Dr. Pecci's insights are brilliant. He has a very direct, unencumbered way of bringing to light new ways of looking at the basic problems we all live with. He offers many solutions that truly work, and brings the reader effective ways of coping with whatever is going on in their life -- at whatever level they may be on. This is the type of book you'd want to give to others as well as keep for yourself. I know I'll be re-reading...
