Product Description:
An urge comes up, we succumb to it, and it becomes stronger. We reinforce our cravings, habits, and addictions by giving in to them repeatedly. Pema Chödrön guides us through this "sticky feeling" and offers us tools for learning to stay with our uneasiness, soften our hearts toward others, and ourselves and live a more peaceful life in the fullness of the present moment.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Not only food for the soul, but practical advice
Pema Chodron has a wonderful approachable style which is evident in this audio collection of her speeches.

They are very meaningful, helpful, realistic, understandable and practical.
If you are looking for a fresh way to examine why you do the things you do (over and over again), this Pema seminar ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - wonderful
This is very worthwhile if you are struggling to break free of self-limiting habitual thoughts and actions. It's not cure, but it's a process.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Getting stuck, etc. / Pema Chodron.
I have not opened it yet. I did not realize I was buying a CD; I wanted the book. Is there a possibility of replacing my upopened CD with a book?
