About the book

Pema Chödrön draws on traditional Buddhist teaching to argue that moving toward painful situations, rather than away from them, can open the heart during times of fear, anxiety and pain. A 20th-anniversary edition added a new afterword by the author.

Seth Godin credits Pema Chödrön, meditation and knowing how to sit with tension, rather than insisting it go away, for making him better at getting through long, hard stretches.

Seth Godin (Author & Entrepreneur)

Almost the flip side. I'm so much better at [protracted difficult periods] because of Pema and because of meditation and because of knowing how to sit with it and not insist that the tension go away.
