Listening to Pema Chodron speak is a delightful experience in itself, with her soft lyrical voice.Her teachings are clear and sound, and punctuated with delightful humor.The teachings were given to a live "audience" and there are points during this taping in which she takes direct questions from the audience.This is a wonderful part of this book!

Rating: - Getting Unstuck is worth it
Perhaps the title doesn't exactly describe Pema's discussion topics but nevertheless what she talks about it well worth it!!

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
