Radical Acceptance

by Tara Brach

Three key ideas

  1. Notice the story of unworthiness instead of taking it as the whole truth.
  2. Pause and gently name the feeling or thought before you choose a response.
  3. You can allow a feeling without approving the situation that caused it.

The five 2-minute lessons

  1. 1.A mistake is not a verdict
  2. 2.Pause, notice, then choose
  3. 3.Feel it without approving it
  4. 4.Care that still takes responsibility
  5. 5.You don't have to carry it alone
