The Gate of Tears: Feeling Good About Sadness

Dr. Jay Michaelson is a best-selling writer, a columnist for The Daily Beast, and a longtime political commentator and activist. He is also a rabbi and teacher of Buddhist meditation who is seeking to integrate the professional and the personal, the political and the spiritual. In his life, and in his new book, The Gate of Tears: Sadness and the Spiritual Path, he brings a highly un-New Age sensibility, skepticism, and humor to the subjects of sadness and loss. Not only does being authentic about our emotional lives make us happy and more productive, it also opens us to real relationships and real work in the world. Join us for an engaging and lively conversation!
