Tara this meditation has helped me accept my fear and helped me adjust my responses to other with more dignity and calmness.

While this was pandemic centered, it was very helpful in recentering the fear I'm feeling about the current political and social upheaval and reminding me that through intentionality, I can feel the waves of fear and still use my skills to successfully "man the boat". Thank you!

Talks a lot about pandemic but still relevant and helpful. Loved the boat analogy. Thank you

A very helpful description of the technique and a calming walk through the practice. I find it helpful to listen to as it reminds me how to go through it or if I’m feeling anxious and need the walk through. Thank you 🙏

Always wonderful, thank you. Got a little perspective shift on self-compassion… of being the steady person in the boat (higher awareness) for myself. 🙏🏻

Feeling pain at all that’s happening in the US right now. This helps. ❤️

Thank you….. for helping me help my heart feel lighter

My response: unclenched, released, ease. Thank you.

Centering, with gentle guidance to help shift me from tension and control to tenderness and acceptance. Exactly what was needed this morning and at this juncture in my life.

Holding fear and anxiety with love and compassion. This is real work!

So useful. I am involved with Lon- COViD research and intervention development. May I contact you please?🙏

very helpful at this challenging time during the pandemic. RAIN is a useful tool. Thank you.

Your voice, your message so powerful & kind! Excellent & thank you from my ❤️

RAIN is the bees knees! Learning to be with situations and emotions, and be more compassionate with myself - something that I have never been able to do before. Thank you! Namaste 🙏 😊 ❤️
