"There's probably nothing that feels more valuable than getting intimate with our own hearts," says Tara Brach. "We need it. We need it in this world." Drop into this conversation between GP and Brach, who shares her insights about what it means to open our hearts to ourselves and to others. Brach teaches us how we can soften and create space for each other, and why it's necessary to process our feelings so they don't unwittingly rule our lives. Of course, Brach and GP talk about using the RAIN practice for coping with big emotions, and they do a mini meditation together for listeners who'd like to hear—and experience—it in action.
