About this listen
Have you ever found yourself thinking your way into a tangle of fret, frustration, or gloom? And then something small - a few kind words, the sun glancing through the clouds, a warm cup of tea - gave you a welcome pause from all your inner chatter? With Making Friends with Your Mind, that's what Pema Chödrön helps us to do, not by chance but with our full intention: to stop fighting with our thoughts and reopen ourselves to wonder as naturally as we breathe.
The Buddha saw that the human experience is full of drama: confusion and conviction, joy and sorrow, success and failure - and that our minds love to amplify all of it. "We decide somebody or something is a certain way," muses Pema Chödrön, "and then that judgment gets frozen and fixated, long after things change. And things always change, right?"
In these free-spirited sessions, Ani Pema helps you to bring awareness to those inflexible thoughts and sticking points. Through meditations, daily practices, and the kind of simple pointers that can change our lives, you'll learn that it is entirely possible to return to the flow and freedom of your experiences - and to find your way each day closer to a place of unconditional friendliness with yourself and with those in need.

Fantastic
I’ve listened to this a few times now and each time have found more wisdom. The teachings are clear and the questions asked by members in the audience were authentic and relatable.

Amazing soul
I absolutely love listening to Pema C. I am truly grateful she exists ...I feel that with her insights and teachings I can stay with anything that arises in my life.
I laughed so much listening to this workshop. I will probably listen to it many times.

Everyone can learn and grow from Pema Chodron.
Do warm, touching and truthful. Guidance for life but so warm and often funny and endearing. Have gained so much from Pema.

Soothing, illuminating, metaphorical
Having not listened to Pema Chodron before, this was an interesting take on how to better deal with - get comfortable with - unpleasant emotions. (Not negative or unwanted because apparently they're all just emotions that we can learn from and welcome as a part of us!) The combination of her talking and guiding, alongside audience questions felt useful.

one of my favourite Pema audio books
The traditional Buddhist teachings are really brought to life by the regular q&a sessions with the audience. I will listen to this book again and would recommend it.
