I have been following you long time, I am always calmed by your voice, message, leading meditation. I have felt much anxiety in these immensely changing times of uncertainty! Thank you, 69 year old male, Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
I felt pretty wretched yesterday, tired and downhearted and just plain BAD. I was lying in bed, over tired and despondent. I put one of your shorter talks on, and just closed my eyes and listened. It pulled me through. I felt a tiny bit better. I had enough energy to get through the day. I accepted that I was just feeling horrible and that trying to escape that bad feeling was only making me feel worse. Today the heaviness lifted a little. thank you
Yes 💕 she threw me a life raft when no1 else would when I felt myself picking myself up I thought I must tell her she helped me admit my 😭..SO I had to share this gratitude I am learning & growing As we change collectively,the frequencies feel lighter ,more joy 🕯️more ❤️ Namasté 💗💬 much love as the messages_ resonate en our hearts know I'm here too . ✌️❤️
🙏🏼😇💕🌞🤗 One of my favorites and although I have it saved, it shows up literally just when I need to be reminded and re reflect. Love us humans Love our demons Love our humanity Love Tara Brachs humor 😂🤣😂🤣😂 Grateful 💜💜
You really are a friend indeed I’m an only child, resilient brave loving trusting etc. I’ve had situations such as the demons in the cave, I totally get it Yet my courage is lacking elsewhere Tara thank you, I see you as the big sister I would love to know I survived on my desert island, humans thrive when they know they’re not in total isolation The courage of being human ❤️
This is my take on the Q posed by Tara: Total surrender to the here and know Plunge into the unknown with our naked heart no matter what. [Not conscious of even a tinge of “courage” which is but an illusory, superfluous label.] One may call this ultimate love of life.
So uplifting in cave times. Namaste to you for bringing much-needed healing to a tired soul. Now I must converse with my demons, with your encouragement. Thank you!
Thought and physical tension are inexorably linked. I have been told -- and seen others being told -- so many times, in so many ways to simply "stop thinking bad/wrong/negative thoughts." This has been a theme throughout my odyssey through the world of personal growth, be it personal or professional. Sure, I'll acknowledge that going all Eeyore over yourself isn't helpful. But aside from the thoughts you're consciously or unconsciously thinking, there is a physical conditioned response occurring in your body. Chronic states of tension are indicative of a nervous system that feels threatened. And when your nervous system feels threatened? Everything looks dangerous. EVERYTHING. Even -- perhaps especially -- opportunity. Opportunities signify change. A shift in circumstances. An identity adjustment. New stuff. New experiences. And new things are scary to a nervous system that's living on the brink of survival (whether or not it's ACTUALLY in danger is a whole 'nother topic). So if you're trying and failing to reach your big dreamy goals, if you know you're capable of so much more, if you sense that you're meant for a bigger life than this... But you can't seem to make it happen? It's probably -- scratch that, almost certainly -- not your fault. You are likely falling under the influence of non-conscious processes in your body that are trying to keep you safe. Read that again... They're trying to keep you safe. Sure, writing the book, building the business, changing your relationship, all of that seems like it would be to your benefit and bring you more resources in the form of money, recognition and community. But your nervous system doesn't know that. This is how your thinking brain gets into a tug of war with your physical self. SUKIE BAXTER. 27 sem
Quick story, my son wwasvery sensitive when he was a toddler and still is igiess. Anyway, when he was 5 or so i would chase him around the hpuseabd say "the claw". When i caught him i would tickle himl. Talk about a dumb mom. When he was abound 10-11 he asked me if i remembered that and i told him yes of course and he went on to tell me it was a horrible experience for him. I was shocked, i felt so bad as he told me he had nightmares of a big harry monster that put him in a cage and every little while ot would come and tickle him to the point 9f crying. He said thecage was licked and he couldnt get out. I apologized a hundred times and told him the next time he had the dream when the monster comes to the cage make friends with it. It was a whe b4 ifollowed up with him to see how his dream went but he said it was fine, he made friends with it and it never bothered him again.

With deep gratitude for how you show up in the world. These teachings bring forth such a feeling of love, and it eases the heaviness. Namaste.
Thank you for this wisdom. Just what I needed to hear right now ❤️🕯️
This is my take on the Q posed by Tara:
Total surrender to the here and know
Plunge into the unknown with our naked heart
no matter what.
[Not conscious of even a tinge of “courage”
which is but an illusory, superfluous label.]
One may call this ultimate love of life.
So uplifting in cave times. Namaste to you for bringing much-needed healing to a tired soul. Now I must converse with my demons, with your encouragement. Thank you!

Tara uses the term, 'founder's syndrome" - what does that mean?
Or oneness with all existence.
You are soooo beautiful
