Summary
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

Clear and inspiring
How pleased I am to discover the work of Tara Brach on Audible. Her words are truly life changing. I try to begin every day listening to some of this book and have found it not only uplifting and inspiring but a huge help in understanding myself and in practising self compassion.

Wonderful
Wonderful to be personally led through this difficult topic by Tara. She has such a beautiful voice (I'm from the UK & I love her gentle US accent) and conveys her words with such warmth that it feels life you are having a personal coaching session with her. I always try to listen to Tara rather than only reading her as it makes her teachings so very accessible.

almost perfect
One minor criticism: gong/bell at end of the meditations made late-night listening less enjoyable, as the material is otherwise brilliantly suited to soothing a bout of insomnia if it weren't for the sudden unexpected harsh gong sound just as you're finally drifting off!

So much good content, structured a little randomly
This book has great content and so so many great teachings within. I found it a bit fast paced ... By that I mean so many poems, quotes, stories etc were coming at you, I think I'd need to listen / read more than once to take it all in.

Dissapointed
I found the narrator hard to follow, as I kept being distracted and daydreaming instead of listening. I attempted this book twice in case it was just my frame of mind, but it happened both times.
The book was oka, but I didn't find it anything special, and I cannot remember much from it due to not being interested to listen.

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
