Radical Compassion

Learning to Love Yourself and Your World with the Practice of RAIN

De: Tara Brach

Narrado por: Tara Brach

One of the most beloved and trusted mindfulness teachers in America offers a lifeline for difficult times: the RAIN meditation, which awakens our courage and heart.

Tara Brach is an in-the-trenches teacher whose work counters today's ever-increasing onslaught of news, conflict, demands, and anxieties - stresses that leave us rushing around on auto-pilot and cut off from the presence and creativity that give our lives meaning.

In this heartfelt and deeply practical audiobook, she offers an antidote: an easy-to-learn four-step meditation that quickly loosens the grip of difficult emotions and limiting beliefs. Each step in the meditation practice (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) is brought to life by memorable stories shared by Tara and her students as they deal with feelings of overwhelm, loss, and self-aversion, with painful relationships, and past trauma - and as they discover step-by-step the sources of love, forgiveness, compassion, and deep wisdom alive within all of us.

RAIN and Radical Compassion

This book was fantastic. Thank you Tara for furthering the explanation and use of the important tool RAIN. I found the examples and stories highly useful and highly recommend this book.

tara being tara

tara has never made something i didn’t like. her works are all so heartfelt. and i love listening to authors read their own work. it’s so special having this as an audio book because the meditations in the chapters serve as guided audio meditations. such good work, and so important. has kept me good company during SIP and i look forward to revisiting.

Worthy practice

I think this book came a little too early for me. There is a lot to unpack here. Excellent tools and a valuable way to frame your existence to minimize unnecessary suffering. Will absolutely have to revisit in the future.

Life changer

I loved this audio book and learned many helpful tools that I use daily. So thankful to have found it.

Powerful

Learning about compassion and R.A.I.N. in a gentle but powerful way! I found myself with new insights and exciting ways of self care and care for others

This Book is a Gift

The narrative, philosophy, practices and guidance that Tara has put into this book are an act of generosity. Thank you Tara for your beautiful voice.

who am I if I no longer believe limiting beliefs?

I am just now reading this classic book for the first time but can tell it is going to help me transform my life. realizing my feelings of negative self belief are not true is going to teach me who I really am. I am so grateful for this book.

Gentle wisdom 

Loved the message and gentleness. This book and Tara Brach have changed my life. Self-compassion was what I was lacking and it affected everything. I’ve given copies of the book to family members and a friend.

An experiential approach that is thoughtful & kind

Takes a practical and experience and brings its essence in a deep meaningful way. Highly recommend.

Medicine we desperately need.

Listen, Re-listen and then listen again. “Radical Compassion” is deeply healing medicine for the gnawing internal judgements, criticisms and self-hatred so carefully cultivated by capitalism, patriarchy and Calvinist influences. My experience as a survivor is that the practices in this book begin a process of actually healing from childhood trauma. Using R.A.I.N. and some of Tara’s other suggestions I’ve been able to truly generate and receive love in a way I’ve never had access to before and I’ve been on the path of healing for some 20 years now. I am so grateful I invested time in this book and Tara’s other resources. Warmly, S.
