Tara Brach	Listen to tracks Show 2 Tracks
The flag of trance is identifying as a separate, deficient self. This talk explores how developmentally we can get fixated on fears and unmet needs and cut off from the wholeness of Being that is our true nature. We explore the power of mindfulness --seeking not to change but to understand--and the expression of that understanding as love. The talk includes guided reflections that can help us recognize and awaken from the confines of trance.

Rather than making New Year’s resolutions that often end in a sense of failure, it is more helpful to look at our life and practice in terms of aspirations, and to ask what do we need to cultivate and what can we let go of in order to support those aspirations? Using mindfulness, we can become more in tune with what really matters to us and also begin to notice the many subtle and even unconscious influences on our choices and behavior.
