R.A.I.N. is a four-step practice that helps us recognize our emotions so we can respond, not react, to challenging situations. It can assist in easing emotional confusion and suffering. Sharon Salzburg and Tara Brach are a few of my favorite meditation teachers that teach R.A.I.N.
Taking action has been a helpful tool to bring me back into the present. I have an ever-growing list of actions I can take to move me back into BE-ing. Back into Joy.
