Heart Opening

Fantastic teachings with guided meditations. Pema takes the traditional teachings of Metta meditation to the next level. Highly recommended.

Excellent!

Pema is simply one of the greatest minds of our time. This audio covers some of her older material, but expands into some new thoughts. I have most of her other audio books and this is by far...the best recording I have heard! There isn't the background noise or poor quality that is found in some of the other audio books. If you are thinking of buying any of her work or if you are new to her work then buy this one first. If you have her other work then buy it for the simply for the great quality! Lots of tools in this also. It is quite concise and great clarity on all levels. Thank you Pema...you have given so much needed wisdom.

Retreat recorded

I’ve listened to this audible book many times. At first I was confused by all of the lead meditations it contains. Now, that is part of the beauty of this book.

If you are in need of healing

This set of lectures includes several guided meditations that you can use as a toolkit to help accept and abide with negative emotions, feel deeply supported and develop love and compassion for yourself and others. I listen to her instructions over and over always finding something new to deepen my practice. If you suffer from anxiety, resentment, feeling inadequate, anger, etc. these teachings and tools are a way through to light and love.

This is not something to casually listen to

The content is of course really important and deeply meaningful however, if you were wanting to listen to something while you’re doing dishes, folding laundry or driving somewhere this is not that kind of listen. this is essentially the audio of a weeklong retreat so there are lots of silent spaces, so if you are looking for guided meditations this is that kind of listen. that is most of what this this, there’s some lecture and lots of guided meditations. This is not a book.

Sadly hurried

Pema Chodron is an amazing teacher. I am a great fan of her work.
Unfortunately, Awakening to Love is paced in a manner that is hurried and is actually difficult to listen to.
