Event Details

Join us for the launch of “Sanity and Sainthood: Integrating Meditation and Psychotherapy” by Dr. Tucker Peck, a clinical psychologist who has spent two decades bridging the worlds of psychological practice and meditation teaching. In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Peck challenges common misconceptions about intensive meditation while offering a fresh, evidence-based perspective on what practitioners can actually expect on their contemplative journey.

Drawing from his extensive experience working with both therapy clients and advanced meditation practitioners, Dr. Peck reveals how intensive meditation practice often differs dramatically from popular expectations. Rather than promising a state of perpetual bliss, he explores how deeper practice can uncover hidden psychological content—sometimes leaving practitioners feeling worse before they feel better. The book offers a crucial roadmap for navigating these challenges, redefining enlightenment not as the absence of difficult experiences, but as a profound shift in how we relate to the constant fluctuations of consciousness.

“Sanity and Sainthood” provides essential insights for meditation practitioners, offering a practical framework for integrating intensive meditation practice with psychological wellbeing. It’s an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complex intersection of deep contemplative practice and mental health.
