Description

Sean Harrison completed his studies at one of the most prestigious medical centers in New York City in the spring of 1982. For three decades, he worked in a profession where he excelled and provided his family with a lifestyle, he never dreamed possible. For it is a far cry from his senior year of high school when his classmates voted him as "the most likely to be dead by the time he's thirty."

Harrison shares his life story, revealing how anyone open-minded and willing can experience a dramatic shift in consciousness, from an inner-ghetto mentality to a new way of being. Harrison focuses on what he calls the four pillars of addiction—fear, guilt, resentment, and self-pity—responsible for most of the unhappiness we see in the world today.

Out of the Ghetto is designed to help the addict and non-addict alike, offering practical ways to erase the errors of our past and begin anew. Harrison’s fundamental belief is that anyone who suffers from the pain of living can change the way they live by altering their thoughts, free from the ego’s distorted perceptions of reality.
