With the spiritual classic \u003cem\u003eThe Myth of Freedom\u003c\/em\u003e as the touchstone, Pema invites us to look beyond the \"myth of freedom\"—the idea that we can escape discomfort—and to work compassionately and wisely with what keeps us stuck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing from the seminal work of her beloved teacher Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche, Pema explores how meditation, mindfulness, and radical self-acceptance can transform our struggles, neuroses, and pain into gateways to awakening. \"These were the teachings,\" Pema says, \"that inspired me most in my early years of practicing Buddhism. They continue to inspire me now and have influenced all the teachings I've given over the years.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith her characteristic humour, practical wisdom, and compassionate insight, she shows us how to make friends with our minds, work skilfully with emotions, and open our hearts to the richness of human experience.
