I listen to Pema CDs in my car. My only problem is that when I park, I wait for Pema to complete a thought so I can turn off the car. But she keeps going seamlessly on. These CDs are a reading of her book, which was written in complete sentences. So I can turn off the car when the reader pauses.
I like the voice of the reader, calm with enough inflection to carry the meaning of the sentences.
Let me comment on the person who said that it was too difficult to read. Listen to the CDs. What you can grasp, you grasp. Listen to them again. Ah, a little more of it clicks with you. This is why I like listening to the CDs rather than reading the books.

A couple years back my dad got demoted and was potentially going to lose his job. He was facing a lot of uncertainty and was not sure how to deal with it. I first read The Places That Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times in a high school philosophy class when I was dealing with a lot of my own personal problems and found it incredibly helpful and selected this book as an introduction to Chodron. Since reading this book my dad has started reading several other books about buddhist spirituality and has pursued meditation, all of which have helped him immensely both then and now. This book serves as a great tool for maintaining spiritual health and a comprehensive introduction to Buddhist spirituality and Pema Chodron.

Pema is accessible... Her writings are very helpful and exemplify the very compassion she teaches for herself and for ourselves and others...Her writing is grounded while pointing to the "ineffable". She makes Buddhism and meditation more ... well, meaningful for those in the trenches...all of us...very healing...simply good advice that she makes even clearer!!!Thank you Pema Chodron for your life and sharing so much of it. Another great book!!!

It's a best of some of her writings, and it's really good. It's a nice concise set of one and two page sections from her other books. Something that I found myself reading a second time.

Once in a great while a book like this comes along. It's so honest and plain and challenging at the same time. The short chapters and conciseness furthermore make it all the more accessible.
