Pema Chodron is a very wise human being. One feels this sense of well-being when in the same room as her.
We were very fortunate to have attended one of her teachings last year in Halifax.
She has a great sense of humour and yet has this profound, yet simple, outlook on what life is....... while looking at it 'square in the face'.
“It isn’t what happens to us that causes us to suffer; it’s what we say to ourselves about what happens.” ~Pema Chodron
