Finding True Refuge: Meditations for Difficult Times If we feel overwhelmed by the difficulties of life, is there someplace we can turn for the safety and peace that we need? "In any moment, no matter how lost we feel, we can take refuge in presence and love," teaches Tara Brach. On Finding True Refuge, this renowned psychologist and meditation teacher offers insights, practices, and eight guided meditations for finding our way home to the inner sanctuary that is always available to us. Brach gently guides us away from seeking comfort in false refuges such as material wealth or a sense of control, and instead shows us how to find shelter through the gateways of truth, love, and awareness. "If we can learn to open to the aliveness within us," Brach says, "we discover that we can love this life no matter what."
