Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach

informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

As a self-development book, it has some good points, but overall I was disappointed by it because it had been so hyped up by book rec lists and it just didn't present any ground-breaking ideas, nor did it really delve into true Buddhist teachings, more-so just surface level yogic principles. I also had some problems with the ways that she used some of her experiences to convey the advice, and for that it should be marked as a book about her journey rather than a book on advice/insights for the reader. Overall there are plenty of better books out there, both in terms of general self-development, and for Buddhist teachings specifically.
