Hello Friends, Maria and Jackie here with another episode of Becoming Mindful.
As we look toward a new year, we paused to read and reviewed a beautiful book by Tara Brach called Radical Acceptance. The book takes you through the journey from self discovery to acceptance and ultimately to how to live from compassion to settle into a loving kindness routine.
This was such a beautiful framework that we have created a mindfulness challenge to offer our community (you!) in the new year. Join us as we establish a mindful new year with the support of this beautiful community. Sign up at becomingmindful.com/challenge for free. We hope to see you there.
