Everyday Awakening - Bruce Tift

​Bruce Tift joins Everyday Awakening live on November 15. Bruce has been a psychotherapist in private practice since 1979 and taught at Naropa University for twenty-five years. He has practiced Vajrayana Buddhism for more than forty years and studied with Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. He wrote Already Free. He has been my mentor for twenty years, and most of the psychology in my coaching comes from him.

​This cohort works on two things. One is the view that nothing is missing. The other is personal work: finding the survival strategies we learned early and updating them, without calling them pathology. Bruce has worked between Western psychology and Buddhist practice his whole career. He is good at spotting when we use the view to avoid our human problems.
