Notice: This is a SUMMARY of “When Things Fall Apart. Heart Advice for Difficult Times” by Pema Chödrön.
In her book, When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times, Pema Chödrön gives practical everyday advice on dealing both with life’s great tragedies and minor announces. Borrowing from her studies under the tutelage of teachers and masters of Tibetan Busshism, Pema proposes that we take a closer look at the nature of suffering and reconsider how we relate to it.
