"Based on 40+ transcripts from Charlotte Joko Beck's never-before published dharma talks, the book focuses on what Beck called "The Crux of Practice," learning what our Core-Beliefs are about our self and learning how to unlearn those beliefs and experience things just as they are"-- Provided by publisher.
