No guided meditation, just a talk
Of course, what Pema Chödrön says and how she is telling it, is very inspiring and deep wisdom. I personally was disappointed, because I expected also some guided meditation, but it was not.

If you've never learned how to do the Tibetan practice of Tonglen, this is the place to learn it -- and to deepen your practice. Tonglen is how to transmute negativity into Light, for yourself and to heal the planet. When you can face any challenge head-on and be part of the unfoldment (while spreading your joy, contentment, and happiness) then you can develop Unconditional Confidence.
Energy of anger and depression are energy of wakefulness tapping into is like watering the seeds of enlightenment. One of the ways of strengthening anger and depression is our storylines and strengthening the old habits. Opening up and stepping into new territory wide and fresh are keep stepping. Train and open your heart moment by moment, no predetermined state, but new un fabricated moments is a brain creation. These are some words from Pema Chodron to unstuck from the rut. It is helpful listening. Feeling of self-loathing gets greater unless one train and balance, trust in awakened mind with complete freshness and not bound by habit. Start with open space, what is blocking? There is nothing wrong here with the energy the problem is we keep running away from it causing entanglement. It is so personal. When mind freezes into a view, dualism occurs. Lack of confidence reinforce duality. Relax your grip, let go of storylines and return to non-dualistic. Relax back to openness. Gripping is false security it is actually threatening. Anything can happen whether you control it or not. Face the facts.
I'm sorry, this was a download, not a CD. Please accept my new rating.
The content is great - Pema provides wonderful insight.
My only complaint is that the engineers at Sounds True didn't spend more time cleaning up the audio. As an older, soft-spoken woman, Pema is hard to understand many times throughout.
There is still time to remix / remaster this recording for future customers. I would recommend paying strict attention to Pema's volume at times and clean up any mumbled sections.
