MEDITATIONS FOR EMOTIONAL HEALING BY TARA BRACH

TARA BRACH CONVEYS "THE BOUNDARY OF WHAT WE CAN ACCEPT IS THE BOUNDARY TO OUR FREEDOM"
I say, Everyday when I can be willing to accept with grace or not, I find something opens up I had no idea I would have found, had I not said "okay lets go with this 'I hate this moment....'and see what happens when I allow it to be as it is."
I have to say "thank you" to all the spiritual teachers including my own Catholic up bringing, Eckhardt Tolle, Gangagi, my own Mother, my own Father.

Wouldn’t life be great if we didn’t have any conflicts, disappointments, suffering, illness, or death? We often act from an unexamined belief that our life would be perfect if we could avoid everything we don’t like. Yet Dr. Tara Brach teaches that by trying to avoid our pain, we often miss what is most beautiful in life—and why it is beautiful.

In this excerpt from the audio program Meditations for Emotional Healing, selected by Sounds True producer Randy Roark, Tara explores the practice of surrendering to life exactly as it is. It is in this state of presence, she says, that we can find what’s better than a life without suffering—life itself, in all of its beauty and richness, sadness and loss, filled with mystery and wonder, just the way it is.
