In this week’s One Mind Podcast I review the book Radical Acceptance, written by buddhist teacher and clinical psychotherapist, Tara Brach.
Believing that something is wrong with us is a deep and tenacious suffering,” says Tara Brach at the start of this illuminating book. This suffering emerges in crippling self-judgments and conflicts in our relationships, in addictions and perfectionism, in loneliness and overwork–all the forces that keep our lives constricted and unfulfilled.
Radical Acceptance offers a path to freedom, including the day-to-day practical guidance developed over Dr. Brach’s twenty years of work with therapy clients and Buddhist students.”

Hi Francisco, Thank you so much for your kind note. I am so happy to hear this. I still practice the counting meditation as part of my Shamata or calm staying routine – to settle my mind before letting go. It’s so simple and effective. I appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best. Please keep me posted and let me know if you have questions or reflections as you go. Best to you, Morgan
