“This moving away from comfort and security, this stepping out into what is unknown, uncharted, and shaky—that’s called ‘liberation.’”
—Pema Chödrön
We all know what it’s like to be triggered—to have said something we wish we hadn’t, or reacted in a way that wasn’t helpful. In Tibetan Buddhism, this is known as shenpa—the quality of being “hooked” into reactive patterns that cause us stress, anxiety, or depression. Given fuel, these sparks of shenpa can grow into raging fires within us. But there is another way.
In The Freedom to Choose Something Different, bestselling author and beloved Buddhist teacher Pema Chödrön shares her liberating practice for disarming reactivity and choosing a fresh alternative. Over six in-depth sessions, Pema will help you transform your self-limiting habits, addictions, and behaviors by guiding you to greater presence in your moment-to-moment choice points. You’ll learn:
What’s Included:
Once we see how we are “hooked,” we begin to realize the potential for transformation in every moment. Join Pema as she helps you break free from cycles of suffering and awaken the limitless potential and freedom within you.

Once again I am enjoying Pema’s talks and learning from her. She has such a marvellous sense of humour all wrapped up in deep teachings. Thank you! 🙏
Wonderful
Meditations and learning with Pema Chodron!!
“ The Freefom To Choose Something Different” defines my current struggles in allowing myself the freedom after so many years of self sacrifice, to let my inner being guide me. Thank you🙏
I saw this course and it really got my attention. I read the blurb and thought yes, this is for me. I’m quite early in my journey to enlightenment and have found Pema’s teachings just jive with me. I’m on to session 2 and loving every minute of my study. The course also includes bonus material which is great. I love that I can work at my own pace and can revisit sessions at my leisure and that I have lifelong access.
I am 60 years of age. From here 5 years, i will go to reform, without job. I want to make businesses with my wife called Diekumbanzila Sita Simao for continuing of the live. I require to God to meditate with us to success to this mission noble.
