Our habitual ways of avoiding unpleasant experience keep us from intimacy with our inner life and with each other.

Tara helps us recognize these often unconscious patterns that keep us identified with a separate, threatened self, and offers guidance in saying “yes” to the life we encounter. As we release resistance, we discover the creativity, wisdom and love that express our unbound, true, nature.

Tara Brach explores why letting go is so challenging and why it can’t be forced, but instead approached with a willingness to release.
