About this listen

Drawing on the wisdom of Buddhist teachings, illustrative stories and the transformative power of meditation, Tara guides us in healing the shame and fear that bind our hearts.

In the West, most of us have suffered the fear of not being 'good enough', feeling insecure about our appearance, our sexuality, our intelligence, our spiritual progress or - often most importantly - being worthy of love. When these feelings of insufficiency or self-aversion are strong, we fear abandonment and rejection. Many people have already found the Buddhist perspective on our emotional life to be extremely valuable - and this book will be a major practical contribution to the subject.

Am just saying. Tara Brachnis the goddess of meditation and I love her voice. She embodies everything she teaches and that’s what makes this book so great. It’s authentic. Fabulous

I’ve been wanting to read (listen) to Tara for some time and it did not disappoint.
This book has helped me immensely on my spiritual journey. It is expertly layered to appeal to advanced spiritual practitioners as well as those just beginning their journey.

Wonderful!

the book is great and very informative as to how to pause, reframe and react differently in a hard situation, giving many first-hand examples.
HOWEVER the narrator pronounced many names and buddhist terminology very wrong, up until the point that it was unrecognisable who / what was meant. please let her practice the pronunciation of the unfamiliar words (rinpoche, chögyam trungpa, togme zongpo, pema chödron - from the top of my head) before the final recording.

narrator ok, book is great

This book is a tour de force. There is so much spiritual and personal development in it to be gained. I listened on slightly fast speed to make the timing for a book club. I will go back and listen again. I especially loved the detailed word by word relating of tender conversations with clients and self.
Tara repeats spiritual and emotional truths in many different ways which make them easier to be understood and absorbed. Thank you.
