Summary

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.

Skeptical, but proved wrong

This book is being very helpful to me. At 52 years of age its difficult to come across meaningful and practical help and advice that one hasn't already tried and failed miserable to integrate in one's existence. Despite my deep reservations of the title and subject matter I must say it's been and continues to be a very real companion. I imagine I shall be needing this guidance for as long as I live

Little gem of a book

Short, to the point, and gets the teaching across perfectly. A little gem of a book that could change a life if and when a person is ready to take it in. Thank you Tara Brach
