Explore with us, Ms. Brach’s ‘radical acceptance.’ Maureen views this concept up close and personal. Boiled down to its essence, it is meeting yourself, your life, responses and reactions with friendliness. Regulating to pause and accept - not trying to make experience anything other than it is. Why do we think or choose to change experience based on ego, wants, desires? Interesting concept.
