Timeline
Mark Epstein (born 1953) is an American author and psychotherapist who integrates Shakyamuni Buddha's teachings with Sigmund Freud's approaches to trauma.
He often writes about the interface of Buddhism and psychotherapy.
Epstein is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Medical School.
After completing his psychiatry residency at what is now New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, he entered the private practice of psychiatry in New York City.
He is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at New York University School of Medicine.
He was interviewed for segments of the PBS documentary The Buddha.
Epstein went to a Buddhist summer camp in Boulder, Colorado, where he met his first Buddhist teachers, Joseph Goldstein and Jack Kornfield.
In his early 20s, he traveled to Ajahn Chah's forest Buddhist monastery near Bangkok, Thailand, together with these teachers as well as with Richard Alpert.
He has practiced insight meditation since 1974.
He is a contributing editor to Tricycle: The Buddhist Review and his books include Thoughts Without a Thinker and Going to Pieces without Falling Apart.
Both books deal with the Eastern teachings of non-self.
"'In resisting trauma and in defending ourselves from feeling its full impact, we deprive ourselves of its truth.'"
"'I think it's so easy to extrapolate from this moment as if we know what's going to happen in a week, or a month, or three months, or six months, or a year. And this is one of those situations. The Buddha was always talking about it, of the importance of uncertainty. That really, we don't know what the next moment is going to bring.'"
"'For myself, I feel like all those retreats that I've been on, they really help. Because this way of living is so much like being on retreat. You can sort of feel what the weather is going to be the next day, but you don't know much more than that.'"
"'In this time when people are much more secluded than they're used to, when they're quarantined, when they're in the home, when they don't quite know what to do with themselves, there's a real opportunity to bring this quality of mindful awareness to the particulars of one's life. There's a real opportunity to be much more alive, and awake, and aware in one's day-to-day life.'"
