I learned how to fight pain when I was very young .... Then I learned to fight disease as a relaxation technique...... Chronic pain for decades later, this year, I started listening to Tara and learned how to be with pain, listen to it. I am now, after all these years, chronic pain free
🎯 Nailed it! This is Me. Thank you for CONNECTING me back with me! My inner peace and joy are returning through doing your work. God Sent. Thank you for fulfilling your purpose. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗❤
Love from Toronto Canada .you have so helped me ., dealing with my son who is terminally ill with Cystic Fibrous,,it’s been a long road he just turned thirty which is a long life with his disease..
RAIN and your meditations have been a source of comfort, strength and support to me as I’ve learned self-acceptance and how to love myself unconditionally. It’s probably been what’s helped me the most along my journey when I feel despair and sadness, I can be with it and just be with myself, and no longer abandon these parts of myself. It’s hard but I know that learning to love my whole self like this has deeply healed me .
I write poetry including over a hundred Haikus and you inspired this one. Blessings. A Haiku For You Walking Outside by t.a.mayes Big bright moon so near Smelling fruit trees in the wind Pausing this moment
One of the most important talks Tara This is so needed as there are so many who walk about half alive. The big answer I get when I see this in loved ones is…I’m just quiet or I’ve always been a loner…
This was the most beautiful birthday gift I received a few days after but you streamed it on my birthday. Thank you forever for this clear resource that I receive from your shares in this time of heart break and fear of not being able to love and be loved again.
I lost my mother when she passed away a part of my soul left with her. I know I’m not myself. I used to be funny and laugh and mostly that is gone and dead. My mother made up part of my identity here. 😢. I miss her so deeply it hurts to the core of my soul.
What does one do when traumas are the big ones and there is ptsd and major depressive disorder? And healing and breathing is taking up the whole day, and one can’t work a full time job? One may disappear. Is this what some homelessness is about? Then what?
"but we humans, especially us, MORE CIVILISED ones"... ? 🤔🙏 Language is incredibly complex, layered and powerful. The Oxford definition of "Civilised" is "a stage of social and cultural development considered to be more advanced." Careful and conscious choice of wording is crucially important, especially amidst the long existing and still ongoing, harmful and unjust divisive hierarchical thinking and behaving, the many layers and variations of oppression in the world - may they be of racial, ethnic, cultural, religious, gender and sexuality, age, disability, neurological functioning based differences etc. related. A lot of it has shifted into more subtle manifestations (in modern, American term, called 'microaggressions') and are quite often unconscious, social-cultural conditioning based biases. What is referred to/ is meant in this context, is the (white) western(ised) modern global" way of living, which indeed has long lost touch with some essential core elements of integrated, holistic, intuitively wise processing of things. It is not an intentionally chosen phrasing, neither is meant to cause harm. The present audience itself, naturally so, is likely English speaking American. It's also an older recording. Still, in the light of the gradually emerging and developing conscious efforts of equ(al)ity, diversity, inclusion and belonging, which has also been implemented into the amazing MMTCP course, with a DEIA group and the 'racial affinity training', it's important to note and rephrase these things. Intent and Impact are indeed separate things and don't always match each other. The 'western style' societal setting itself is indeed more 'advanced' in various ways. While the humans, living in these surroundings are often not more 'civilised'/ advanced, in fact, sometimes less so. (especially looking at the ways of how the "more civilised" world and its ruling leaders have been dealing with conflicts (or generated them) over the past centuries and certainly within the past few decades. Hanging up the validity of international laws, letting injustice carry on, letting counties/ cultures/ communities be destroyed, countless innocent people be killed, for the sake of whatever political and economic power related interests. A lot to look at, acknowledge, ponder and discern 🙏 The "more civilised" ones, in true human terms, are often those groups, communities, indigenous people etc. who, in the eyes of the modern world are considered to live in "less advanced" ways (and certainly amidst less economically powered circumstances). 🌏 Just an example: "Before our white brothers arrived to make us civilized men, we didn't have any kind of prison. Because of this, we had no delinquents. Without a prison, there can be no delinquents. We had no locks nor keys and therefore among us there were no thieves. When someone was so poor that he couldn't afford a horse, a tent or a blanket, he would, in that case, receive it all as a gift. We were too uncivilized to give great importance to private property. We didn't know any kind of money and consequently, the value of a human being was not determined by his wealth. We had no written laws laid down, no lawyers, no politicians, therefore we were not able to cheat and swindle one another. We were really in bad shape before the white men arrived and I don't know how to explain how we were able to manage without these fundamental things that (so they tell us) are so necessary for a civilized society. " John Fire Lame Deer (born into the Mineconju-Lakota Sioux tribe) Something to take to heart, for all of us across the world. To reflect on and learn from. So that we may be able to open up to and see the wider, complex existing reality around us. And through our own inner healing and transformation, may we be able to listen more carefully and profoundly, to ourselves and to each other. To learn to feel more, to think with constantly deepening awareness, justly, lovingly - way beyond being "civilised", reclaiming humanity. To speak in the same way, and also, act in accordance with what we think and say. May our world heal, within us, through us. And through the rediscovery and growing experience of Interbeing, the innate truth, which Thich Nhat Hanh phrased so beautifully. ✨🌏🙏

Very beautiful, so expressive and inspiring 😍
Thank you & Namaste. A technique that really helps which therapy in the past never approached. ❤
Thank you Tara, this is the beginning of a new much needed journey. I am profoundly grateful for your teaching.
Greetings from the UK -
thank you Tara for your talks
They have helped keep me going through a tough year
One of the most important talks Tara
This is so needed as there are so many who walk about half alive.
The big answer I get when I see this in loved ones is…I’m just quiet or I’ve always been a loner…
This was the most beautiful birthday gift I received a few days after but you streamed it on my birthday. Thank you forever for this clear resource that I receive from your shares in this time of heart break and fear of not being able to love and be loved again.
A lovely practice. Thank you✨💜
Thanks!
Also Tara, you are a channel from the Light. I bow to the Divine in you. Namaskar
Thank you & bless you beloved sister! 🙏🏼🥰💐

Greetings too, from the UK ❤ thank you for this wonderful gift today. I seek out your work for the peace it brings me 🙏
Wow I really needed to hear this today Tara, thank you 🙏🏽

Wow, that's painful. I pray angels meet you in your need so beautifully ❤
Yes, I've noticed a lot of homeless suffer mental illness. It's very sad
Thank you for posting this. It really helps. ❤
