Thank you, Tara. Your meditations and talks have literally saved my life. Your talks are transformative and help me change my mindset. I’ve still struggling, but your talks and meditation. Keep me hopeful. I appreciate you with all that you do for the world in the community.
Tara, I’ve been having pain in my back for well over 6 months.
The medical field has essentially become useless.
Their ideas are stuck in the past and seldom do physicians think outside the box.
But you do my Dear Tara.
I listened to an archived podcast today on pain.
And I can truly say my pain has improved.
I felt like my life was disappearing and my person was getting small.
Thank you for all you do; your loving & kindness goes a long way 💙
While listening to a recent episode, I found myself yearning to hear a conversation between you and Brene Brown. While your work and hers share some similarities I couldn’t find any direct conversation between the two of you and that would be so interesting and powerful.
Tara’s spiritual teachings have greatly impacted my life. Thanks Tara and team x
