When we seek comfort and relief from stress, Tara Brach teaches, we often unconsciously turn to false refuges such as material wealth, approval from others, or a preoccupation with the past and future. Yet by cultivating true refuge in this moment, not only can we find shelter from the storms of life but we also open ourselves up to fully experiencing joy and fulfillment. Here, Tara Brach guides a meditation using the therapeutic R.A.I.N. process for releasing fear and healing through self-compassion.

When the difficulties and losses of life feel overwhelming, is there someplace we can turn for the safety, nurturing, and peace that we long for? Most of us are strongly conditioned to react with fear and confusion, falling back on strategies of judgment, control, addictive behaviors, and anger. Yet there is another way. “In any moment, no matter how lost we feel, we can take refuge in presence and love,” teaches Tara Brach.

How do you cope when facing life-threatening illness, family conflict, faltering relationships, old trauma, obsessive thinking, overwhelming emotion, or inevitable loss? If you're like most people, chances are you react with fear and confusion, falling back on timeworn strategies: anger, self-judgment, and addictive behaviors. Though these old, conditioned attempts to control our life may offer fleeting relief, ultimately they leave us feeling isolated and mired in pain. There is another way.

A somatic training program to open your heart to the world. There is no more powerful vehicle for knowing yourself and others than the human heart. For it is through the opening of the heart that we touch our own deepest experience, and come to connect with each other. In Awakening the Heart, Volume 1, Dr. Reggie Ray presents an in-depth somatic training curriculum designed to help us dismantle the walls around our hearts and dwell in bodhicitta (literally "awakened heart-mind").

The result is this extraordinary look at the hard work we all must do - the laundry - no matter how often we experience ecstatic states of consciousness through meditation and other disciplines.

I agree MIND BLOWING
- By R. Martin on 05-24-07
Publisher's Summary
A growing number of people are beginning to see things in a radically different way. In other words, more and more of us are starting to "wake up" spiritually - to discover an entirely new identity beyond the usual sense of who we think we are. But what is spiritual awakening, really? How does it happen - and what are the consequences? Is it possible to attune to this dimension of experience at any moment?
In Waking Up, Volume 1, Sounds True publisher and founder Tami Simon speaks with seven teachers about their personal understandings of spiritual awakening - how it takes place, what changes (and what doesn't), and how their experiences can inspire and inform our own realizations.
Volume 1 guests and topics:
"A Radical Shift in Identity" with Adyashanti
"Loving Ourselves into Freedom" with Tara Brach
"A Freedom That Leaves Nothing Out" with Reginald A. Ray
"Awake, Yes, but Keep Practicing" with Sally Kempton
"Small Glimpses, Many Times" with Loch Kelly
"The Death of the Little Me" with Eckhart Tolle
"The Mandala of Awakening" with Jack Kornfield
A radical shift in identity. The direct experience of unity with all things. Unexplainable joy and a blissful ease of being. These are just some of the ways in which people have described the experience of spiritual awakening. But is it the same for everyone? What if we've had only glimpses of "waking up?" How does the process unfold - and does it end? Join us in Waking Up for an exciting investigation of these profound questions and more.

interesting and informative
This was an excellent set of interviews conducted by the founder of Sounds True. some very strong leaders in the realm of spiritual teachings were interviewed, and a tremendous amount of information was given about what Spiritual Awakening means. I am searching for follow-ups regarding ways to achieve these types of spiritual Awakenings as these interviews provided very limited information in that area but this was extremely helpful and interesting.

Oh dear, I have been listening to Sounds True for years but this first series of interviews will be my last. Some speakers are, surprisingly, inarticulate and others retreat into the jargon of their own belief system and some ......EGO....... or what!?
