Walking the Walk

Putting the Teachings into Practice When It Matters Most

By: Pema Chödrön

Narrated by: Pema Chodron

It's one thing to hear a life-changing truth or to have a conceptual grasp on spiritual wisdom. But it’s another thing to "walk the walk" - or to put into practice the good advice we've been given. What does it mean to walk the walk in our everyday lives? According to Pema Chödrön, it means being down-to-earth, genuine, and perhaps most importantly, it means engaging in the teachings in order to actively confront anything and everything we’ve heretofore rejected in our attempts to find happiness. Created to help us respond with compassion and authenticity when our spiritual ideals are put to the test, Walking the Walk brings you four inspirational sessions with Pema Chödrön, as you explore:

• Stabilizing the Mind - awareness, presence, and the foundation of the spiritual path
• Unconditional Friendship with Yourself - getting unstuck from the patterns that create our own misery
• Freedom from Fixed Mind - how to release biases and prejudices to revitalize your everyday experiences
• Taking Care of One Another - essential guidance in the ability to truly be there for others

The teachings in these sessions are not about perfection or unrealistic standards. "Baby steps are okay when learning to walk the walk," explains Pema. No matter the situation you find yourself in, here is a program for remaining true to the values we seek to live by, and staying open to the kindness and love that is always available to support us.

Pema 💕

Ani Pema, says it like is and I so appreciate her candid and timely advice.

Delightful

I have listened at least twice to each of the 4 lectures offered in this audiotape. Pema is relaxed, thoroughly open and laughs at herself. I will listen many more times. The audiotape is easy and necessary and transformative.

Good growth

I found a lot of value in this teaching. It provides achievable and measurable goals.

Very Inspirational!

Pema Chodron is wonderful to listen to. She is so inspirational. I enjoyed it so much I am going to listen to it again in order to gain more insight on the concepts she presents.

Provides Tools and Insights

Very helpful with learning how to meditate. I always enjoy listening to Pema Chodran. Definitely worth the money.. Buy it..

Simplicity for the Journey

Easy listening, gentle presentation, good sound.... Pema brings peace. Truths presented simply and with love

worth listening to over and over.

I love pema. this is my favorite to recommend because it is so full of useful tools and not too long.

Soothing and insightful

I like listening to this at bedtime in small portions. This is Pema Chodron giving a talk at a meditation retreat and is a very warm and accessible teacher of Buddhist ideas. I have listened to it many times now as well as some of her other talks and books and I enjoy them all, but this one is more recent and she sounds relaxed and assured and kind, fully in her element.

Putting Lessons to Action

What can I say about Pema that hasn't already been said? Wonderful woman with great insight and gifted at transmitting the teachings. I like this book because she gives you practical 'to-dos' to go with the teachings. I am currently putting them to work daily.
