A (potentially challenging) Buddhist recipe handling anxious times.

Tara Brach, a legendary meditation teacher, psychologist, and frequent flier on this show. She is the founder of the Insight Meditation Community of Washington and has been active in bringing meditation into schools, prisons and underserved populations. She has also written several books including Radical Acceptance, Radical Compassion and Trusting the Gold. 

In this episode we talk about:

  • A Buddhist tradition known as the Bodhisattva teachings… which are quite radical… and which Tara thinks can vastly improve your life… and the health of democracy. 
  • We also talk about: why some people might think this stuff is too soft
  • 4 practices to develop compassion 
  • A mindfulness technique known as RAIN
  • How mindfulness can help you see what is beneath your anger
  • Letting distress be a portal—and the amazing phrase, “action absorbs anxiety”
  • How to get active when you have limited time
  • And how to counteract the tendency to numb out

Tara also recorded a guided meditation based on this conversation, which you can find on www.DanHarris.com.
