Facing Fear: Awakening Your Fearless Heart, Part I - Tara Brach

Facing Fear: Awakening Your Fearless Heart, Part I - Tara Brach [Originally published 2020-02-12]

Fear is a natural and universal part of our incarnation, and, when it goes on overdrive, we get imprisoned in the suffering of separation. These two talks explore how the RAIN meditation can help us face fear, and discover the boundless loving awareness that includes but is not contracted by currents of fear.

I've just started watching/listening to her videos quite by "accident" & I'm so impressed by her level of evolution compared to everything else I've been listening to. Ms. Tara thank you for sharing your high level thinking with the world.

Thanks! Fear (acronym-false evidence appearing real) is the root of discord. Your funny and playful way of honing in on such truth is much appreciated. I fear appearing controlling, but will share it with my loved ones any way ; )

Thank you Tara and team for this teaching . I like the idea of making it 'the fear' rather than 'my fear'. Helps me realize, be reminded, that we all have some.

This is so precious….a pre lockdown, open free gathering of pilgrims on the path not knowing how difficult things will become. It’s no wonder so many of us were beginning to feel the fear clutch, all the canaries in e coal mine. So prophetic. How much fear brought people to turn on each other. . Bless us all. And May we all learn a lesson from these dark years.

Having strong waves of fear as I practice. Feeling like I'm going throw up. I need help processing. I have no support. 🙏🏼

I love her teachings. Profoundly helpful when I need her lectures the most. I wish she would drink more water and, or I didn’t hear her every gulping, smacking, respiratory, guttural mouth and throat clearing noises. I wonder if she’s aware of it? Clearly, the problem is me and my idiosyncrasies, pet peeves, but it makes me bug sometimes. The times I’ve gone to Dharma retreats, I experience other retreat participants, getting bugged and bothered by others habits, and I chuckled to myself. But I’m open to suggestions for my own stuff. Thanks in advance.
