RAIN Meditation

In today's session, Tara Brach will introduce you to the practice of RAIN, an applied meditation that combines mindfulness and self-compassion. RAIN (an acronym for Recognise, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) is a practice that helps you tackle difficult emotions when feeling overwhelmed. Whether it is anger, anxiety, fear, shame, or stress, RAIN will release the grip of that emotion and guide you home.

So helpful for me this morning. I have some anger and frustration towards myself after dropping and smashing something in the kitchen last night. So much rage and judgement! I shock myself with how a small accident can release such strong negative feelings towards myself!! It's a bad habit of mine. I will use RAIN practice again. Thank you Tara. What a helpful practice!

Excellent way to shift stuck energy. I'll be using this one on repeat.

I so needed that right now. The relief is incredible. Thank you for your guidance and wisdom 🙏🏼😌

I found this a wonderful transformational practice. Thank you Tara for your work and your being. May many blessings be yours too. 🙏🦋💜

very gentle way of leading through the experience, and very supportive. Thank you!

I forgot all about this meditation for a long time, so it was really wonderful to have it suggested to me this morning when i chose to respond differently to a difficult emotional pattern.

I found it lost challenging to nurture myself but I expect the more i practice this the easier it becomes.

Just so supported bybl this practice...been living off the Youtube version and tonight, with the Insight Timer membership, was able to really sink into this experience. This "applied" meditation works wonders. Be well!

Wonderful introduction to RAIN and guidance through the practice.

Tara has truly saved my life. I have BPD and this practice has greatly transformed my anger. I am forever grateful for her impact in my life. Bookmark for when you’re triggered or feeling the trance of unworthiness.

Such a wonderful caring lovely meditation. And very helpful. Many thanks for sharing 🙏

I cried boohoo tears during this meditation. Did not realise I had been holding so much in and I was able to get in touch with some deeply buried fear and offer it my presence. Thank you so much 🙏🏾

That I found it hard to let go, perhaps out of fear if the uncomfortability of difficult emotions/sensations. A sense of space is what it provided

Such a helpful experience. I learned to be curious about painful situations. What untruth am I telling myself? What's the lesson or what's really true?
Thank you!

I feel more at ease with my situation. Thank you.

Pretty emotional. Really enjoyed the guidance through the process of RAIN. Was able to get under some layers!

Very powerful and helpful meditation ,thank you 🙏🏽❤️

Ein so wertvoller Beitrag für die Menschheit 💝 Von Herzen Danke, liebe Tara 🙏

Thank you 🙏 your wise and wonderful words were so helpful- just what I needed right now

When you work with the weight that you can bare, in this exercise, you gain immense strength in the muscles of self care. These muscles get you over mountain tops.

Beautiful, thank you Tara for yet another wonderful guided meditation.
