I listened to this about a year ago. It was good. After a year or two of reading many books on trauma, counseling and self-love- i am listening to this talk again and realize how far I have come in my healing- because, I can now fully "get this". My brain works better. Really wonderful talk.
I have been diagnosed with bipolar 1,CPTSD,ADHD,a dissociative disorder,and 4 kinds of seizures and I don't know where I would be if I hadn't found buddhism as a teenager.I no longer need most of the medications I had been on,I have integrated from my dissociative disorder,and I am no longer I my own worst enemy.Healing is possible.
Tara, I'm healing more with your TH-cam videos than time with my old therapist! I can't believe how precious these videos are... So timeless. You have given so many a gift. May you be well, may you be healthy and may you be happy!!!!! Thank you and namaste Xoxoxo
Wow, just wow. Sobbing my heart out as I see so much of me and so many other people needlessly suffering. Your words are so wise and so true. Incredible, thank you! Thinking on it, what if anger and greed were actually mental health problems and its trying to live amongst this is making the rest of us extremely mentally unwell as we don't understand the way they think and yet we are classed as the ones with the mental health issues. Makes sense to me.
A “must watch” for every therapist, teacher, or anyone struggling with trauma and disconnection, Having studied this for many years, followed Tara, sat with many of her peers, taught mindfulness and Vipassana, the most insightful talk I’ve ever seen. Blessings and many thanks, the watch will be a repeat, David
Tara you are an angel sent from above. I've been trying to figure out for over 20 years where all the uncomfortable feelings such as hallucinations, paranoia, depression have emerged from. But after listening to its evident that their us still trauma stuck in my body. Thank you for shedding light on what trauma us and the impact of what trauma can do. Thank you so much
29:43 Thanks for saying that! I think it's really important to be clear with the fact that, if one has suffered trauma, going directly to the pain can be counterproductive.
Some conceivably useful timestamps: 24:48 - About shamanic soul retrieval rituals, which heal in part by creating a social container of deep love and safety 28:37 - Research about relationship, hugs, etc., and reducing fear 29:30 - It’s not useful to just jump maximally into trauma and fear. It’s important to approach it from a place of sufficient safety, love, and resources. 30:55 - Story about parole officer with lingering sexual abuse trauma. Includes coming up with the mantra, “May I feel completely safe; may I feel fully loved”. Resourcing techniques to help explore trauma with some feeling of safety (starts 34:40): 34:58 - Grounding, by sensing gravity or by noting visual objects 36:30 - Finding places in the body that give a sense of comfort or safety 37:23 - Intentionally manipulating the breath, six seconds in, six seconds out 38:38 - Bringing to mind people or other helpers who can make you feel safe and loved 42:04 - Parole officer story continued. She eventually has some very intense energy movements in her body, leading ultimately to an experience of “My soul was back”. back” 42:28 - Reiterating that you need to find the window of tolerance when working with trauma. If you’re in the window of distress, this may just retraumatize you. 43:17 - Parole story continued 50:07 - final reflection/practice
Tara Brach thank you for this great lecture & meditation! Namaste! Great for a horrible day of no one understanding me while coming off a Benzodiazepine after 26 yrs... The just don’t f**king get it! No one does...only those going through it! This was very helpful! I hope I will have the Executive Function & Memory to remember to come back to this! 🙏🏼🌹♥️
Hi Cynthia, it was amazing coming across your comment here from 2 years ago. I also have horrific trauma from coming off a benzodiazepine (clonazepam) and it has led me to seek holistic and spiritual paths to soothing and healing. I was wondering how you are doing now and are you still involved in any peer-support benzo communities?
@@c.taylormorgan3668and here I am 2 years after your comment, in the same place. I list my faith as it’s very painful to try to come back to the teachings, reminds me of the old me. I feel like a child and Tara is like a surrogate sister ( my own abandoned me through this)
You have helped me heal from some deep wounds and reconnect with my biological father to that SAFE spot of love that I haven't felt in years. Traumatized as a child because of divorce. This has helped me understand so much and I am so grateful that I can feel that re-connection with the spirit of my father whom passed on a few years ago. This particular talk has overwhelmingly given much needed insight on PTSD. I have practiced the breathing and meditation for years. This has beautifully blessed me to reconnect with long lost and missing love from many years of pain. Thank you! NAMASTE!
Tara, you are the light through my broken pieces. With immense gratitude, I thank you for sharing your wisdom and guidance. My spirit is returning, my life is returning because of you. Thank YOU!
This talk is pure GOLD. In gratitude beyond words Tara Brach. You are a treasure, glad to be alive to hear such wisdom, and presented in language that is easy to understand. God Bless You and your work. 🙏✨💕
I think we all should say thank you to Tara I am kinda of blown away at all that life throws are way and the complex nature of things that she can put together so many great teachings to all of us. I am very thankful for the TH-cam videos they have been a blessing thanks for all you do. Really getting so much from these videos. 👍👌☺️
wow. This hit home and was very therapeutic. Thank you for your part in my awakening and further guidance. This video is one I will watch and have already watched again and again. Thank you Tara!
I've swapped my NPR time for Tara Time! Slowly, I'm learning to do what helps / heals and letting go of areas over which I have minimal control. It's a process . . . Sending love.
Beloved Tara. Your teachings on shame saved my life but did not prevent me from making a very serious suicide attempt three months ago. I have no shame whatsoever, but am still suffering from significant PTSD. I was held in solitary confinement, tortured and told that I would be tied up with a hood over my head if I made a sound. I went through eight days of pure torture. It resulted in two suicide attempts and experts say that what happened to me results in suicide 100% of the time. I've made a dramatic comeback but am still suffering a lot. I've been using re-evaluation counseling, dialectical behavioral therapy, rapid transformational therapy, neurolinguistic programming, etc. I am listening to you right now and just heard you say that it is love that we need and kindness. I have a deficit of that and have been videotaping myself every time I have an emotional release. The young person who said they want someone with skin on. I have a lot of online friends but my local friends are too busy for me and I can't get skin to skin attention. It's horrible and I can't wait to get that need met. Here's an impromptu video I made that shows my radiant joy and I wasn't traumatized at the time. But then the memories come back and the trauma is re-triggered. I'm not afraid. I have no fear. But the rapist who was involved just showed up today and has been driving up and down past my home. th-cam.com/video/ahOabA1WzPY/w-d-xo.html
Tammy Poor dear it breaks my heart to hear your story. You deserve to be safe and you deserve to get your needs met. I have worked with a few people with severe traumas and I understand how hard it can be to meet your needs in your situation. I am on Facebook under this name if you want to find me though I do share content related to educating people about satanic ritual abuse so that we can conquer this issue. My heart of healing and wholeness reaches out to you Beauty. You are so courageous for making it this far and saying yes to life every day. 💕🙏🏻
Such a wonderful and lovely talk. Just sensing this possibility that there is someone who cares about these things and puts such wonderful talks and resources online is powerful enough to show the possibility of the path of healing and freedom. Doesnt matter how deep and old the wounds are, immediate trauma or generational one like racism and so, still deeper than that is our collective longing to awaken and discover the depth of our being which is beyond that. Thank you Tara and to all other beings, to the Buddha and others, whose fearless and selfless hearts made it possible for all beings really to walk on the path of healing and freedom.🙏
Thank you Tara for your love, compassion & wise council. I too am navigating significant trauma like many otgers here. im grateful for your message & your generous heart. May you feel safe, well & have peace also 💞
So sorry. I’m a long time member & also have had some trauma to work through. I know there are definitely some people in the groups that are very sick and not safe. I’m grateful to focus in on the loving and kind folks in the rooms. May you find your loving and kind people 🙏
Last week I broke my ribs the pain at times is excruciating. Listening to this I realized I am unconsciously recalling the trauma when the women at Brenner and Brenner in Bayside threw me to the ground and kicked me in the side and the face causing me to bleed and have fractured ribs😢 sadly somehow they were able to convince the detective they had done nothing wrong but surely they had. I am a senior citizen and they never should have gotten away with what they did to me I thank God for Tara and tools
I feel ashamed for the maladaptive way I responded to a perceived slight that cost me my job and some friendships. 😔 I fear that the gaslighting will follow me forever no matter where I work therefore healing will be a life long struggle. I may be damaged goods but I will learn to survive. I feel cutoff now. May I feel love, may I feel safe, may I feel peace ......💔
Yes this must be where self sabotage comes from and I know that when your healed you can believe that the person was inside you the whole time like the real you was always there but just blocked by trauma when I felt healed I called it the epiphany but now I am going through a difficult time again trying to find healing but Tara has been amazing to watch its helping alot
So much sadness has risen up listening to this I am crying. It is as though I’ve watched my life passed before my eyes. I am now in the final stage of trying to make myself available to contribute and put myself out into the world. I was a victim of severe physical and emotional abuse as a child as well as other ways. My husband of 35 years who passed away four years ago would get up in the middle of the night and just put his arms around me or touch me in a loving caring way even just holding my hand and like you said here Tara it seemed to changeMy brain chemistry. The tears still role as I speak wish I had someone to hold me. No family or friends nearby. 😔I will do what you suggested and imagine loving caring arms around me.🙏🏻💖I will pray for all of those of us who are in my shoes
I am so sorry for your loss. You were so lucky to have such a loving supportive human being in your life and for so long. Sending good vibes and a hug.
Beautiful talk! Trauma and it's effects are actually universally prevalent and much more far reaching than what was cited here from those studies. While management and transcendence are effective approaches, resolution requires deeper work like EMDR or ID-R . From my over thirty years of experience as a counselor, Here are some essential books that give a deeper perspective: "The Myth of Normal" by Maté, "The Body Keeps the Score" by van der Kolk, and "EMDR" and "Getting Past Your Past" by Shapiro.
I really recommend a weight blanket that helped me grounding and could re-connect with my body when scanning it. Mine is about eight kilos, feeling embraced and much easier to sleep instead of trying to escape and “run out from home”. It really helps me to stay! I know that not all of us suffering from PTSD can manage but give it a chance to try it if you can rent one as I am🥰
I know this true from my past healing of child hood trauma. The bigger the wound, the larger the space to hold Spiritual gifts. I thought I had done my trauma work and was on to a great life. However I just found my son - passed - in a horrible accident- make’s my past trauma seem so much lighter in comparison
thank you so much for your beautiful sharing(s) all along the journey....it touches my heart, and revive my courage to be open and vulnerable, to be....to love always, more and more.....
Reacently I started reading your book and I followed the channel years ago after recommendation from my dad. This video realy helped me to get more insight. There is however something I struggle with. I noticed that for me it is extremely hard to let the sensation of nurture and resourcing exist. I feel an urge to run away from this sensation, just as I have dificuly to alow myself the experience of joy and I fear this joy and sensation of nurture. Is this familiar for anyone?
Myrthe Wallaert I can relate. What I discovered in my healing journey is that very early on when I was a baby, a was never allowed to be breastfed until I was full and the connection with my mum was interrupted repeatedly (as per the advice from the doctor.) this created a fear of connecting and shame of wanting. I am working on this retrieval with therapists (Internal Family System therapy) It is a slow process but I truly feel it is possible to heal. Wishing you reconnection.
Gabor Maté is right regarding the criminal justice system: in its criminality, it perpetuates trauma. Kudos to this woman for healing and creating change around her.
I totally understand all of this . I have come a long way from a traumatized childhood and then abusive men and self medicating with alcohol and drugs when I was young. I found myself and I get you totally . But my 24 year old committed suicide 1 and 1/2 years ago and although I push through it everyday and can laugh and enjoy life and think positive. Those negative guilt feelings are a constant battle. I try to ignore them but especially when alone and its quite its so hard to push it out cus I do then as soon as I relax from it and not even thinking of it , of course it pops up again. How do you deal with the loss of a child to become completely whole again. I love your talks but have heard nothing about trauma from death especially of a child. Id love to here what you have to say.
Kelly, I hope you read this. A friend who lost her only child found great comfort in a group for grieving parents called Compassionate Friends. Please look for a chapter near you. I wish you much, much peace and love, Kelly.
I wish I could work with you, I know you don't do it anymore, it's just difficult to find therapists with this much kindness to offer someone struggling with trauma
Blessings to you of Health, Wellbeing and Joy , your family and all that surround you , the blessing to all that you help so selflessly , your amazing at what you do . Thankyou for you and the path give to you for what you do for Being’s having this human experience that is heated up LOL.
when she said see if something need acceptence. i felt so much my father eager for acceptence. well let give him acceptence. why not. he did try after all.
I listened to this about a year ago. It was good. After a year or two of reading many books on trauma, counseling and self-love- i am listening to this talk again and realize how far I have come in my healing- because, I can now fully "get this". My brain works better. Really wonderful talk.

Last week I broke my ribs the pain at times is excruciating. Listening to this I realized I am unconsciously recalling the trauma when the women at Brenner and Brenner in Bayside threw me to the ground and kicked me in the side and the face causing me to bleed and have fractured ribs😢 sadly somehow they were able to convince the detective they had done nothing wrong but surely they had. I am a senior citizen and they never should have gotten away with what they did to me I thank God for Tara and tools

I fear that the gaslighting will follow me forever no matter where I work therefore healing will be a life long struggle. I may be damaged goods but I will learn to survive. I feel cutoff now.
May I feel love, may I feel safe, may I feel peace ......💔
Well your a human we all mess up hope your good today

Thank you once again, Tara🐛🦋🙏
THANK YOU TARA!!!
I totally understand all of this . I have come a long way from a traumatized childhood and then abusive men and self medicating with alcohol and drugs when I was young. I found myself and I get you totally . But my 24 year old committed suicide 1 and 1/2 years ago and although I push through it everyday and can laugh and enjoy life and think positive. Those negative guilt feelings are a constant battle. I try to ignore them but especially when alone and its quite its so hard to push it out cus I do then as soon as I relax from it and not even thinking of it , of course it pops up again. How do you deal with the loss of a child to become completely whole again. I love your talks but have heard nothing about trauma from death especially of a child. Id love to here what you have to say.
Kelly, I hope you read this. A friend who lost her only child found great comfort in a group for grieving parents called Compassionate Friends. Please look for a chapter near you. I wish you much, much peace and love, Kelly.
Gold. For everyone.
I wish I could work with you, I know you don't do it anymore, it's just difficult to find therapists with this much kindness to offer someone struggling with trauma
Thank you..🙏
very good info...but the best way to learn it is to access it from within ie deep meditation.
Such a beautiful talk/meditation to re visit
