How to Meditate

Why I recommend it

This is a warm, practical introduction to meditation. Pema Chödrön makes room for distraction and discomfort instead of treating calm as the only goal.

What it changed in my thinking

Coming back is the practice. Getting distracted doesn’t mean we’re doing it wrong.

Who it’s useful for

New meditators and anyone who wants a gentle reset.

A tension or limitation

Meditation can help us meet difficulty. It doesn’t mean we have to accept harmful conditions.
