Radical Self-Acceptance

A Buddhist Guide to Freeing Yourself from Shame

By: Tara Brach

Narrated by: Tara Brach

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.

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!
