Pema Chödrön

Why I recommend it

Pema Chödrön offers company for times when our usual ways of coping stop working. She invites us to stay curious about what we’re feeling.

What stayed with me

Discomfort doesn’t always need an immediate solution. Giving it some attention can help us understand what’s underneath.

Who it’s useful for

Anyone going through loss, change, or uncertainty.

A tension or limitation

Staying present doesn’t mean staying in danger. Boundaries and protection still matter.
