When Things Fall Apart

Heart Advice for Difficult Times

De: Pema Chodron

Narrado por: Christy Meyer

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.

This is another of Pema Chodron’s books that could be listened to again and again, providing new learning in each iteration. Every part offers deep insight that is both philosophical and directly applicable to daily life.

an excellent, must read primer to surviving the world from a Buddhist standpoint.

I'm not a practicing Buddhist and still take issue with some principles of the practice however this book seems to be essential reading for learning how to accept our world as it is and our place in it..

Unlike other titles by other authors like, "true refuge" Pema Chidron gives a concise, clear, easy to follow and digestible account of how to let your false self go and become more present and at ease with the world.

Expertly narrated in a calm and soothing voice, this book has held me get through a very difficult time in my life and I'm grateful for the lessons it contains.
