Book Reviews of Getting Unstuck: Breaking Your Habitual Patterns & Encountering Naked Reality
Book Review: Awakening and Soothing
Summary: 5 Stars
Pema Chodron has such a gentle way about her. She is very refreshing and insightful.
Unlike many teachers she seems unaffected and does not look down on her audience.
Getting unstuck gets to very specific issues if you are ready. Since unconsciousness is persistent listen to it over and over.
Book Review: Amazing advice for addictive behavior
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this to be one of the most helpful and profound series of talks I have ever heard. Pema Chodron teaches a whole new (at least to me) approach to dealing with addictive behavior in ourselves and provides really useful and worthwhile ways of overcoming addictions. I kept going "wow" throughout the talks, and have gone back and listened to them again and again, and still find it helpful. Amazing teacher. Amazing teachings.Book Review: Naked reality never looked so good!
Summary: 5 Stars
I normally find authors audio series very disappointing. Not this one. I am a huge fan of Pema Chodron's work. She is a great example of someone willing to do the work to shift and change and create a better world around her. In typical fashion, she isn't offering you a blind eye to the painful or negative things in your life. She teaches you how to step into it and allow your own energy to shift and change the negativity. Truly an inspiring piece of work. When you do this work, reality doesn't intrude... it offers you the way out.Book Review: Calming, uplifting, affirming
Summary: 5 Stars
I love listening to these CDs. Pema Chodron sounds like such a great person and she makes you feel so good about yourself. I have listened to these CDs several times and continue to hear something new every time I listen. Today I heard something and I thought, "Have I heard that before?". It was like my mind just opened up to hear that part of what she was saying. I am going to order more from Pema Chodron. I think she has the right way of looking at the world. I do not meditate (yet) and I do not exactly understand some of her advice for dealing with "Shenpa" but I am inspired to learn more. Book Review: Sage advice for meditators and other folks, too.
Summary: 5 Stars
Pema Chodron offers some sound, beautiful ideas on how to cope with not only addictive behavior, but basically anything in life that you just plain don't like. Her lovely, grounded voice is a pleasure to listen to, she's damned funny, and I've found myself listening to the ideas on this CD over and over as I make my way through the often hostile streets of Manhattan. It's like a primer in how to stay clear and calm and grounded in life, no matter how lousy (or terrific) your circumstances may be.
