Book Reviews of When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times
Book Review: Only Love can Heal the Soul
Summary: 5 Stars
When things fall apart it is not the mind that will ultimatley save us but our heart and soul. Our intellect can serve our best interests when it conjures up strategies that align with our hearts. That said, there is a reason why it often takes a tragedy to push someone to reconnect with God and divine inspiration. Not talking about religious addiction ... but rather that miracle of surrendering to the flow and what a more divine plan has in mind. Chodron goes to the "heart" of the matter ... the broken heart that is left in tatters .... where the healing is first and foremost demanded. The cure for the pain lies in the pain ... and in harnessing a greater spiritual force. A must read!Book Review: Feeling pretty bad? Read this.
Summary: 5 Stars
I happened across this book by accident when a lot of things in my life were truly falling apart. Pema Chodron will some day be reknowned as a very significant spiritual leader, if she is not already. She has an amazing way of bringing spiritual truth down to the executional level. You can do these things, and doing them helps - a lot. I can't recommend this highly enough to anyone who is struggling.Book Review: Order this book today!
Summary: 5 Stars
During an extremely difficult time in my life, this book found me. Each time I read it I get something new out of the experience. And I always come away feeling more centered, more grounded, more calm. This book has touched me in such a way that I have given away three copies, in fact I am on Amazon tonight to order a fourth. And the Compassion box for myself.
Simply put, don't hesitate order this book today! I honestly beleive you won't regret it.
Book Review: Great book for everyone!
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't let the title of this book intimidate you. I recomed this book for anyone and everyone. Things don't need to actually be falling apart before one can apply the great lessons discussed by Pema Chodron in this book. If you have any thoughts that this book may be what your looking for, don't wait any longer and get this book! Book Review: "Hmmm...I wonder what will happen next?"
Summary: 5 Stars
Some books you read and enjoy and promptly forget, but this probably won't be one you forget easily. Pema Chodron's down-to-earth, honest writing style is fast-paced, practical, and real. It really speaks to me and her voice makes the ideas easy to remember. A full year after I read her book, I still recall easily and am able to practice mindfulness, Tonglen, and "Hmmm...I wonder what will happen next?" when I struggle to control or resist change in my life. Wonderful wisdom, delightfully shared. A real keeper. :)
