Critic reviews

"Chodron demonstrates how effective the Buddhist point of view can be in bringing order into disordered lives." (Publishers Weekly)

Packed with Wisdom

This is a live recording of different teachings in front of an audience and not actually a traditional audio book, so there are pauses and background noise, but it did not distract. I love the clear examples, and all of the advise and wisdom in this book. I will be listening to it again.

Pema Chodron very practical guide

Out of the many Pema books I own, this is my favorite teachings. Good review for a individual that has been practicing for a long time or just beginning. Having darma talks with Pema at home is the best!!

great book

it's a great book that connects meditation with our daily lives. it answers so many questions about our inner struggles.

Very helpful

It is very helpful and calming audiobook. It is also nice that it was recorded in front of an audience and they were able to interact and ask questions.

way to pursue happiness and be free of suffering.

simple words spoken softly conveying profound wisdom. soft, challenging, kind, demanding and yet comforting. encouraging.

The comfort of her voice

So distracted with Covid19. Unable to focus much, but the sound of her voice and the snippets I actually heard were so helpful. I am a fan of Pema, highly recommended!
Will listen over and over, as I do all her works.

Wonderful to watch her on YouTube

There is a lot of footage on YouTube for free of Pema, Might want to watch there. She resonates with me and many others and comes across as so personable. I’m so grateful for her and all she’s taught me.

Humorous and profoundly helpful!

Pema’s teachings about meditation are both clear and memorable! Her stories bring the teachings to life. Her meditations make Buddhism accessible! Thank you,

A combination of 3 books into one

This is three of her books in one and will save you some dough.

I know people that follow Pema Chodron’s book like some people follow the bible. However, I don’t think they've ever heard her talk. In the first book (talk) she talks about recent to the events before the events of this talk like weeks before she talks about losing her mind with her granddaughter. She talks about how monks that are suppose to be these people in complete harmony with the world around them really aren't. She talks about learning to deal with this and why its hard even for the Buddhist masters. In the second book she talks about compassion for everyone. She goes into depth concerning tonglen meditation. Which I've tried and it’s very hard at first. It’s very powerful once you get the hang of it. It’s about changing our relationship with pain and pleasure. Why run from pain? Why embrace pleasure? What is the real difference? I learned that the difference between pain and pleasure is perception. And it’s not easy to see it. I learned in the third book that doing tonglen meditation is very helpful.
