Through understanding and compassion, the author guides readers on a transformative journey towards embracing their true selves and moving forward with confidence.
Heilende Wege zu Selbstakzeptanz und Lebensfreude | Das Standardwerk zu Radical Acceptance
Mit der RAIN-Methode schwierige Emotionen heilen | Radical Compassion und Radical Acceptance praktisch anwendbar
Die berühmte buddhistische Meditationslehrerin Tara Brach hat mit RAIN eine bewährte Selbsthilfe-Methode weiterentwickelt, die sie nun in ihrem Ratgeber zu Achtsamkeit und Selbstliebe zum ersten Mal vorstellt. Sie und auch ihre Schüler*innen geben Beispiele, wie ihnen RAIN bei ihren Traumata, Ängsten oder in schmerzlichen Beziehungen geholfen hat. Die vier Schritte von RAIN sind: - registrieren (recognize), - annehmen (accept), - interessiert erforschen (investigate), - nähren (nurture). Mit diesen vier Schritten ist jeder in der Lage, sich in schwierigen Situationen zu sammeln und mit Achtsamkeit vorschnelle Reaktionen zu vermeiden. Gerade der letzte Punkt „nurture“ hilft, Selbstmitgefühl für sich selbst und seine heiklen Seiten zu entwickeln und das Positive in sich zu nähren. Am Ende jedes Kapitels geben Übungen die Möglichkeit, die wertvollen Erkenntnisse von RAIN praktisch und alltagsnah umzusetzen.
