Each step in the meditation practice (Recognize Allow Investigate Nurture) is brought to life by memorable stories shared by Tara and her students as they deal with feelings of overwhelm loss and self-aversion with painful relationships and past trauma--and as they discover step-by-step the sources of love forgiveness compassion and deep wisdom alive within all of us.
