We all have stories about our own badness. I love that word, but I am not sure it is even a word.
If you are human, there are many times when you feel unworthy and unlovable. We feel separated from all that is around us.
We negatively personalize the events of our life - as if they are proof of our own badness.
Of course, intellectually, we know this not to be true. Yet, we habitually repeat stories of what is wrong with us.
It takes courage to uncover the stories we tell ourselves, but it can be done. We can free ourselves from the trance of unworthiness (that we often don't recognize we are in).
Here is another terrific talk by Tara Brach. Enjoy uncovering your innate beauty hidden beneath the trance of unworthiness.
