HOW TO MEDITATE
A Practical Guide to Making Friends with Your Mind
From Pema Chödrön, her first in-depth how-to meditation book for creating and enjoying a fulfilling practice
Pema Chödrön is celebrated worldwide for her ability to transmit teachings that awaken peace, understanding, and compassion into our lives. With How to Meditate, the American-born Tibetan Buddhist nun offers us a complete guide to exploring the essentials for a lifelong practice.
More and more of us are beginning to recognize a deep inner longing for authenticity, connection, and aliveness. Meditation, Pema explains, gives us a golden key to address this yearning. Here, she shows us how to meet and relate with our minds, embrace the fullness of all experience, and live in a wholehearted way.
“The ultimate reason why we practice is so that we can become completely loving people. And this is what the world needs,” writes Pema. How to Meditate provides us with a perfect way to begin that journey.
TRAUMA RECOVERY
A Mind-Body Approach to Becoming Whole
From a leading voice in the field, an in-depth audio guide to healing PTSD in the physical, psychological, and spiritual dimensions.
The aftermath of a single event or repeated trauma can profoundly shape how we experience the rest of our lives. Whether it occurred in childhood, a recent relationship, a catastrophe, or other situation, trauma can have lifelong effects: anxiety, depression, chronic health issues, flashbacks, a disconnection from the body, trust and intimacy challenges, or feeling worthless and broken.
Yet, as impossible as it may seem now, says Dr. Arielle Schwartz, you can return to wholeness.
This pioneering psychotherapist, a survivor of complex trauma herself, has helped thousands to find lasting resilience, loving connection, and fulfillment. With Trauma Recovery, she brings us a compassionate and practice-oriented audio resource for transformation and growth.
Intended to complement one-on-one therapy, this course guides us into the current research on PTSD and complex PTSD (trauma caused by multiple events), symptoms, and the most effective modalities—enriched with many guided exercises.
With her, you'll explore: the neurobiology of PTSD, somatic (body-based) therapies, trauma-specific mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral strategies, EMDR, parts work therapies, relational-cultural therapy, and more.
Highlights:
Session One: Understanding Trauma
Session Two: Trauma and the Body: Healing Trauma Through Embodiment
Session Three: The Fertile Ground of Resilience
Session Four: The Curious Paradox Between Acceptance and Change
Session Five: The Hero’s Journey and Trauma Recovery
