I love Pema Chodron. Could listen to her gentle teaching for hours and, in fact, have a lot recently.

I'm glad she's devoted her life to sharing her wisdom and approaches.

Love Pema's audiobooks better than reading her books, because I love to listen her. Tons of humor and wisdom.
Loved the audio book. First I've read/heard Pema Chodron, and I will definitely want to read some more of her work.
listened, actually. her voice and wisdom could talk me off any cliff.
helpful in practice
Always a good choice!
I'm listening to the audio version while I walk the track at the gym. I love it! It's immensely soothing and full of practical advice.
Pema is an entertaining speaker, but the content was not as inspiring as I had expected.
