Drawing from the human tradition of shared experience, Kitchen Table Wisdom is a guide to inner healing, containing stories that sustain and enrich our lives.
'I recommend this book highly to everyone.' – Deepak Chopra, M.D.
This special updated version of the New York Times-bestseller, Kitchen Table Wisdom, addresses the same spiritual issues that made the original a bestseller: suffering, meaning, love, faith, and miracles.
'Despite the awesome powers of technology, many of us still do not live very well,' says Dr. Rachel Remen. 'We may need to listen to one another's stories again.' Dr. Remen, whose unique perspective on healing comes from her background as a physician, a professor of medicine, a therapist, and a long-term survivor of chronic illness, invites us to listen from the soul.
This remarkable collection of true stories draws on the concept of 'kitchen table wisdom', the human tradition of shared experience that shows us life in all its power and mystery and reminds us that the things we cannot measure may be the things that ultimately sustain and enrich our lives.
Rachel Naomi Remen is nature’s gift to us, a genius of that elusive and crucial capacity, the human heart. She has much to teach us about healing, loving, and living. -- Daniel Goleman, PhD, author of Emotional Intelligence
This is a beautiful book about life, the only true teacher. -- Bernie Siegel, MD, author of Love, Medicine & Miracle
Dr Rachel Naomi Remen is a pioneer in the medicine of the future. With the elegance of simplicity, she shows how physicians can become healers by no longer remaining mere technicians of the human body, but by becoming alchemists of the soul. I recommend this book highly to everyone. -- Deepak Chopra
A book of stunning radiance, authenticity, and power. I laughed and cried my way through it, from beginning to end. . . Come share in this extraordinary outpouring of human wisdom Dr Remen reveals to us in the mirror of her own boundless heart. Don’t let an opportunity like this go by.
-- Jon Kabat-ZinnI loved Kitchen Table Wisdom. It is a beautiful book. When you read this collection of stories, you will find yourself pausing to remember holy pieces of yourself, when you were awed by the Great Mystery, and glimpsed humanity’s relationship to divinity, or felt a deep soul connection with another. -- Jean Shinoda Bolen, MD, author of Crossing to Avalon
Kitchen Table Wisdom will give anyone an intimate insight into what genuine healing is all about. Rachel Naomi Remen is a great healer and a living saint. -- Larry Dossey, MD
