Embodied Awareness – Pain and Living Fully – Part 3
2016-03-30 Embodied Awareness – Pain and Living Fully – Part 3 1:13:26
Tara Brach
The experiences we most value – feeling creative, loving, vital – require being awake in our bodies. Yet when faced with physical pain, our conditioning is to pull away from our bodies, and get lost in thoughts. This talk offers guidance in working mindfully with different levels of pain, as we cultivate our capacity to live from an embodied presence and open heart. After the talk, Tara offers a short period of question and response on embodiment.
