Soar Above began as a way of answering three questions that have nagged at me throughout my 30 plus years of clinical practice:
1. Why do so many smart and creative people make the same mistakes over and over, in life, work, and love?
2. At what point does the unavoidable emotional pain of life become entirely avoidable suffering?
3. How do we escape suffering, while remaining vibrant and passionate about life?
Neurological discoveries in recent years have helped answer the first two questions, as we’ll see in the body of the book. But the third question goes beyond science to the very nature of what it means to be human.
