Home > Buddhist and Meditation Books > Pema Chödrön > The Places That Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times by Pema Chodron We always have a choice, Pema Chodron teaches: we can let the circumstances of our lives harden us and make us increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us and make us kinder. Here Pema provides the tools to deal with the problems and difficulties that life throws our way. This wisdom is always available to us, but we usually block it with habitual patterns rooted in fear. Beyond that fear lies a state of openheartedness and tenderness. Pema Chödrön is an American Buddhist nun and one of the foremost students of Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, the current Shambhala lineage holder, and Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche. She is the Director of Gampo Abbey, Nova Scotia, the first Tibetan monastery in North America established for Westerners. She is famed for her clear and refreshing presentation of traditional teachings on meditation, compassion and loving-kindness.140 pp. Paperback.
