"the Title is PERFECT, I was spiraling out of control with 25 years of alcohol addiction. I was losing my job, my wife gave me the last ultimatum, and i ran into this beautiful work by Pema Chodron.. i listened to it every day for weeks, it was a Anchor in the Storm and a map to calm and peace. i have given many copies to friends and libraries.



i have listened to it on a regular basis over the last 7 years of sobriety and i am still happily married. i owe all i have now to Pema's calm teachings."

Soothing through a divorce

"I found this book on tape when I was in college, and I thought it was useless, mainly because things weren't falling apart. Later, during a divorce, I played the mp3s and found them really helpful. She talks a lot about living in the present moment, learning from it, and not hiding or escaping from pain."

"I was first introduced to Pema Chodron's work from taking an introductory course in meditation and Buddhist studies at UNLV.



I love this audio book. I have this entire CD collection of tracks on my I-POD and it helps me reflect upon my own internal struggles. Her words are very articulate and you can feel the power of her energy from the sound of her voice. She has a way of delivering positive messages without getting into too much thought or religious philosophy. I usually will turn to my Pema collection of tracks in the event I experience a stressful situation at work or at school.



I'm a baptised, non-practicing Catholic and I would recommend this to my fellow Catholics/Christians.



Peace, Love and Happiness!
