Resumen del Editor

How can we live our lives when everything seems to fall apart—when we are continually overcome by fear, anxiety, and pain? The answer, Pema Chödrön suggests, might be just the opposite of what you expect. Here, in her most beloved and acclaimed work, Pema shows that moving toward painful situations and becoming intimate with them can open up our hearts in ways we never before imagined. Drawing from traditional Buddhist wisdom, she offers life-changing tools for transforming suffering and negative patterns into habitual ease and boundless joy.

Life changing. Read 5 times.

Totally worth it. Read it 5 times. Will read again. So much wisdom. Yes. Yes. Yes.

Meditation as a tool

Excellent practical advice for dealing with every day life stress. Great resources for using you stress and trauma to get to a better place

Much needed read.

Found this book the day I was broken up with and definitely a good read if you’re going through a hard time. There was a lot useful advice and reassurance. Enjoyed the soft spoken narration, too.

Tonglinl

I loved it all- mostly Tong Lin and other meditation techniques all I will apply and use

Love listening again

Wonderful voice for the content. Beautiful flow and amazing material to connect with. It often helps me sleep!

Solid message, read in the wrong tone

Incredible, timeless learnings. Unfortunately the reader delivered in a sing-song-y, breathy manner that felt disconnected to the message. For me, it was difficult to pay attention, hearing it read in what felt like a children’s book kind of voice, while the contents are mature, deviously funny, and profoundly severe. This made me doubt that the reader had any experience with the teachings, creating a disconnect that was almost insurmountable. I would love to have heard the author read it, or at least someone who had personal experience with what was being read.

Wise and insightful

This, like many other books sharing the Dharma, provided wise and insightful thoughts, provided new perspectives on how to find peace and belonging, and helped me be more mindful.

Good advice.

Love this book. Very informative. So many good techniques. Will listen again. Thank you for sharing.

A Pema a day keeps the blues away!

As a survivor of trauma I struggle to sit still to read. To be able to hear this book has been a blessing! Pemas words soothe the harsh edges of ego and bring one home to love to self.
