Join me as I interview prolific writer and healer, Robert Sachs, who encourages us to awaken our hearts in these troubled times -- not by sticking our heads in the proverbial sand, but by cultivating and practicing being awake in our own lives.
Today we explore the concepts raised in his book - PERFECT ENDINGS: A CONSCIOUS APPROACH TO DYING AND DEATH.
Born in the U.S., Robert moved to England while a teenager and embarked on the study of Eastern Philosophy. There, he received a degree in Comparative Religion and Sociology and began his study with Tibetan Buddhist Masters and renowned teachers of the healing arts, Macrobiotics Master Michio Kushi and Shiatsu Master Rex Lassalle.
Desirous of furthering his studies in mental health and bodywork, he attended the Central Ohio School of Massage and earned a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Kentucky. Deeply affected by his daughter's death during this time, Robert began to study the conscious dying practices of Tibetan Buddhism. He is a member of Sogyal Rinpoche's Spiritual Dying Network and the National Hospice Organization.
Along with his wife, Melanie, Robert has pursued studies in both Indian and Tibetan Ayurveda. Recognized by renown teacher Dr. Deepak Chopra and other physicians of both Eastern and Western orientation, their writings are considered to be some of the clearest and most usable texts available.
With an educational background and training that is as conventional as it is alternative, Robert has worked with physicians, clinics, hospitals, private individuals and organizations, teaching them how to integrate contemporary scientific approaches with the ancient wisdom traditions in the areas of stress management, preventive health care, end-of-life care, and relationship and group dynamics. He has served as an instructor for the Chopra Center for Well Being in San Diego and the Tibetan Medicine for the Sino-American Rehabilitation Association College in Los Angeles.
He is a prolific writer. His books include:
His most recent book, The Path of Civility: Perfecting the Lessons of a President by Applying the Wisdom of a Buddha, is a merging of the lessons and teachings of two great individuals: George Washington and the Buddha. This book is indicative of the focus of his recent work: encouraging individuals to engage in these troubled times by applying principles of effective and hence, civil discourse.
