Playing Dead

Playing Dead is a beautiful and thought-provoking book showing how our raw, messy human experience can be transformed by meditation.

Maude Hirst, actor and meditation teacher

To spend any time immersing oneself in the ruminations of Robert Sheehan is to experience a wit and wisdom that harkens back to an age of enlightenment, all too rarely seen in modern times. Do yourself a giant favour; immerse yourself!

Ron Perlman, Actor

Playing Dead shows us the power of a regulated nervous system to transform our human experience. In this beautifully written story, Robert Sheehan shares his journey from chaos to stillness and how meditation can lead us to a place of connection and calm.

Deb Dana, Author of Anchored

A meditation guide from a man with a mind most unlikely to be conducive to meditation. Robert’s effervescence in life and exuberant immersion in characters on screen make him an unlikely meditator… and, as a result, an ideal guide for others curious about exploring the practice.

Manchán Magan, Writer and Broadcaster

This book on meditation had me feeling zen enough to consider giving my chaotic mind a retirement package! If serenity could be bottled, Rob Sheehan would be a millionaire – consider me sold on the magic of meditation!
