Radical Acceptance
Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach blends the principles of psychotherapy with the wisdom of Buddhism to guide readers on a transformative journey towards self-compassion and inner freedom. Dr. Brach, a clinical psychologist and Buddhist lay priest, draws from her decades of experience to address the pervasive feelings of inadequacy and self-judgment that afflict many of us.
Through personal anecdotes, case studies, and guided meditations, Brach illuminates how our lives can become ensnared in a trance of unworthiness, manifesting as addiction, perfectionism, and strained relationships. With warmth and clarity, she offers practical techniques to break free from this cycle of suffering, fostering a balance of clear-sightedness and compassion.
Radical Acceptance does not advocate for self-indulgence or passivity but empowers genuine change by healing fear and shame. By embracing our innate goodness and learning to accept ourselves fully, we can cultivate loving, authentic relationships and live each moment more fully.
Praised by spiritual leaders and psychologists alike, this classic work now features an insightful new introduction, an exclusive bonus chapter, and additional guided meditations, making it an indispensable guide for anyone seeking inner peace and self-acceptance in today's turbulent world.
