About the author
Tony Schwarz was a remarkable man. Among his many talents, he
was a polished public speaker and developer of management training systems for corporate America.
Tony studied, tracked and recorded his own mental roller coaster
so he could better describe to other sufferers and their families what it
would take to rise out of severe depression. He realized it was critical
to focus on the keys necessary to unlock the disabling hold that depression inflicts on its victims. It was his sheer will and determination to give this gift to humanity that kept him on track.
Phoenix Rising provides a self-help approach to regaining control
of your life. The step-by-step process is easy to follow for even those
who are at the lowest point of depression.
It is the wish of Tony and his family that his book will show the way out and give hope to those who suffer with this disease, and understanding to those who love and care for them.
Tony took control of his own life by developing a holistic and
healthy lifestyle. These practices enabled him to finish Phoenix Rising
despite many physical challenges.
Unfortunately, he suffered from a heart attack while his manuscript was in editing. His family has lovingly completed the publishing of his book in his absence.
