Radical Self-Acceptance

The Practice of Self-Acceptance, Taught by a Buddhist Clinical Psychologist...

How would your life change if you genuinely accepted yourself, just the way you are? According to Dr. Tara Brach, feelings of shame and unworthiness are the source of many problems we experience with our relationships, careers, creative endeavors, and most fundamentally, our spiritual unfolding.

On Radical Self-Acceptance, this respected clinical psychologist and Buddhist meditation teacher shows you how to free yourself from the grip of your insecurities about being "good enough." With insights from both Eastern contemplative traditions and Western psychotherapies, Dr. Brach guides you through a full program of meditations and skills you need to become more compassionate toward the "unforgivable" parts of your self.

As Dr. Brach says, the most difficult - and pervasive - challenge to Westerners today is the suffering caused by our feelings of unworthiness and self-aversion. Radical Self-Acceptance offers a way to break out of this emotional prison, so you can discover the freedom that comes with kindness and true appreciation of yourself and others.

So far the best I have heard!

Any additional comments?

I really love the that author reads it as if she is talking to you as opposed to reading. It sounds very conversational and her voice is perfect for the content. It was very relaxing to listen too and it really calmed my thoughts.

A worthwhile investment of time

Even & soothing narration. Stories that illustrate concepts make it relatable. Explained my own behaviors & strategies; nice to know I'm not alone. Will listen & use meditations again.

Wow.

I'm a bit stunned by the depth and breath this path travels. Tara's wisdom is breathtakingly beautiful and a bit scary. I am finding it helpful so far.

A Special Book

My therapist recommended this and I’m about to listen through it a second time. Her voice and delivery are soothing and comforting. I found it to be powerful and a lot more than I expected overall. It’s like a gentle meditation through some serious and insightful information. Glad I found it. Not your typical audible book. If you’re meditating and doing the work this will likely resonate with you.

i listen to it daily<br />

love it! tara brach', the author & narrator, soothes my soul and helps my racing mind slow down

You will look deeper at yourself

Each time the author led us through a mediation I was surprised where I was taken. Some of the area's I was taken I was thought I had let go of long ago. Now I know I still had attachment to those moments. I did the complete meditations where the author took us through these moments then through how to see them, realize them and finally let them go. I found this as a deep book which allowed me to see myself as I truly am. I will listen to this again and probably again later. There is much more here than the meditations. There is much wisdom here as well, so get comfortable when the author asks you to and see where it takes you!

I love the meditations!

Tara has a special way to guide you thru meditation. I definitely enjoyed this audio book
