Transforming Your Relationship with Anxiety, with Tara Brach

[@maryannevanoff4464]

So it is 2022. Long time follower to ms brach -years and reading her books. Just listened to this 2020 talk! Loved it. My biggest problems in life is myself. My whole life I felt there is something “wrong” with me. Always looking for the magic to free me from my pervasive anxiety and rumination revolving around how horrible life is and how can I feel better. I don’t realize that I am not the only person who may feel this way and that it is OK and I am ok not nuts. Thx Tara.

[@elizabetheakman]

I too did not realize others, nearly all others, are dealing with despair and feelings of worthlessness, blame, shame and self torture. It helps to know that. But why? Is it the spiritual path? Does the spiritual need to damage the body?

[@arleneroth6369]

Hi Tara, Thank you for all your love, compassion and intelligence. I wish you and yours blessings.

[@julienorton1407]

I have Tara’s books but I love listening to her speak...for some reason her intonations are very soothing for me. Thanks for sharing your peace with us over this medium.

[@krandly8]

I love her affect too

[@masonart4950]

She is an absolute blessing

[@rhonamcmichael]

Totally agree

[@luisxavila]

I often just pick a talk I’ve already heard and go to sleep listening to her voice. Listening to her is calming enough to help me fall asleep faster. And if it’s a meditation like this one I’ll be asleep in minutes.

[@cookiecravingperson]

I return to this talk and practice as needed and it is such good medicine. Thank you, Tara. Those feeling anxious today, we are not alone.

[@janestanton9422]

I have started saying to myself, there's no emergency going on right now and I give myself permission to relax for one minute. Then extend to five minutes and so on. It's helping me out with generalized anxiety in myself. Thank you so much for this beautiful video.

[@sojourner6046]

What a blessing that this video popped up on my feed on the day when my anxiety came out of nowhere, at a level I've not felt in years. Thank you for sharing. 🧡

[@mihajloe]

Tara, you are such a guiding light for so many people. I just want to say thank you, for being always active, bringing your words of wisdom, peace, balance and awakening. My life is better after listening to your talks... it's like everything makes more sense. Blessings!!!

Anxiety and despair... welcome you belong... underneath it is so much grief...and underneath that there is the love, which is why we care so much to grieve.

[@nancifiske3681]

Tara, you have been a comfort to me for years now. Just hearing the gentle tone of your voice sometimes is all I need. Thank you for connecting so many hearts. And also, your beautiful face and radiant smile💕

[@healwith.ashley]

I love Tara Brach. I also feel it's important to note that sometimes our anxieties are trying to show/ tell us something. Trust your gut

[@froipieces]

Thank you Tara❤ for being my meditation guide everyday for the last 7 years. You have given me the tools to find my light💫

[@tovekane]

Tara thank you for your lovung reassurance and also - for the humour that you always find to help us access your teachings from an everyday perspective. Your compassion, wisdom, kindness and insight are so comforting. So grateful for your teachings! Thank you.

[@Lilith__asmr]

It’s like you read my mind. I woke up an hour ago with anxiety (which I’ve been getting more and more in the morning now, used to be just at night) and thought I needed a meditation or some guidance and then I see you uploaded this. Thank you!

[@johnoffutt1646]

Thank you Tara

[@joanelderweller1]

I like the idea of befriending anxiety. Working with it. Finding a blessing in it.

[@josephinemcdonnell9262]

I endorse others beautiful comments which helps me understand and appreciate myself with compassion, love and gratitude.

[@smongo182]

I am in the middle of reading your book Radical Acceptance. It is without a doubt the best (self-help) book I have ever read. It's one that I will read and listen to again and again. Thank you for being so generous as you graciously share your knowledge and gifts with the world. I only wish I discovered your brilliance sooner!

[@mejiaguillermo4998]

Pleasure as always and nice to see you too my dearest online teacher Tara Brach!

[@jadefg1353]

I have just recently returned to my workplace and been feeling fear and anxiety about being back out on public transport and around more people- I listen to Tara's podcast every morning on the journey to and then after work and it helps so much. I am so grateful to Tara. Thank you. Love and strength, and peace of mind, to everyone 🙏

[@VoiceoftheProphecy]

Very powerful topic. Appreciate it

[@lisalazo]

This was my first time to be a part of your mindfulness meditation and talk on youtube. Thank you so much! I needed this group energy that was created to help me be present with my own anxiety that has been building up over the last few weeks. It helped unravel a lot for me. I look forward to attending a live class. Blessings to you all:)

[@faysaunders2582]

Tara, you are so beautiful inside and out,! Love your quiet spirit,! Thankyou for all you do.

[@maryanngriffith6736]

Namaste. I quit smoking 5 days ago, and I have been very reactive. This talk really helped.

[@mariagoldstein5494]

Tara you have helped me so much. I've taken your amazing course. Thank you.

[@mindfulnesstoday6]

So full of presence, wisdom and care. Its so wonderful to watch you Tara and to be invited to your Q/A:s. Thank you for bringing compassion, balance and healing into this world. I think that is something we need more than ever. One of my favorite quotes on fears/anxiety (I heard it on your podcast with Jim Gordon) was something like "to deal with the fear you have to walk through the fear". That really resonated with me. Thank you and namaste!

[@ruth6833]

'Something in you is dedicated to healing' and the advice Tara gave to Jennifer 1:31 so helpful as I could relate. I guess the body is a trustworthy barometer of truths that underly all our pains that can be portals into our inherent wholeness 🙏💛

[@onanee8488]

This talk was most helpful. I struggle with anxiety/panic disorder/c-PTSD for many years. I have been following a number of different teachers for a good while, involved with 'self-inquiry', meditation and mindfulness skills.(* I also have been fighting breast caner for the past 14 yrs...this past Jan. 2022, I was diagnosed with it becoming 'metastastic'. I am on an experimental tx...it seems to be helping, except the side affects can be debilitating. I have other health issues besides this. I am Hopeful and see myself in recovery...Living with a terminal disease, has been a blessing with focusing to stay in the moment, knowing just how Impermanent this life is. So, underneath the anxiety and all is 'Grief'. I can so relate and empathize with what everyone seems to be experiencing with so much uncertainty with what has been happening in our world. I love how you explain so easily about, 'just allowing' to feel what comes. I am able to do this to a certain point and have allowed the feelings to surface even though they are unpleasant... after a while, the stress lessons in spite of the 'ruminating' and hashing over the trauma when it gets triggered. The more I allow, the lessor the feelings take over. It eventually passes. Honestly though, I get tired and fed up with myself when I still 'trance react' as you say. I realize this is a process and how I must be more gentle with myself with this process. Thank you for the helpful tips and your compassion and understanding for what we are all going through. Blessings to you Ms Tara. GBY! Namaste'...❤‍🩹❤

[@vs9312]

I just heard in one of your videos you said you are 67 years old and I was shocked because you don’t look more than 50! What is your secret ?

[@joanjettboy]

❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@amyandrews4333]

i love your videos but as a person with anxiety i can't be told "relax your heart" with much success in relaxing in general as any attention paid to the heart to many with anxiety is uncomfortable as it's something of an area of hypervigilance that has a tendency to cause very unnerving symptoms relating to anxiety. It really sucks because so many classes and mediations bring up the heart and opening it when so many people have other chakras that are very inactive and often with overactive heart chakras. Then they go to classes and listen to guided mediations and every single one mentions the heart. Thats not your fault though, just trying to spread awareness

[@ceeceemolineaux6813]

Oh my gosh, I thought I was the only one. Any time a meditation focuses on the heart, it seems to trigger my health anxiety. That being said, however, this meditation with Tara was overall so calming. I loved it!

[@amyandrews4333]

@@ceeceemolineaux6813 yeah that's kinda why i mentioned it because although it's with the best intentions, everyone is seemingly going for the same popular chakra to open up when if you're someone with anxiety and/or are an empath it's not something that you want to be constantly encountering when things like the root chakra for example are so great to give our attention to for much needed grounding! or the sacral or solar plexus!
