About This Book
In Start Where You Are, Pema Chödrön offers practical guidance for cultivating courage and compassion in everyday life.
Drawing on the traditional Tibetan Buddhist lojong teachings — fifty-nine mind-training slogans — she shows how we can work directly with pain, disappointment and difficulty as gateways to awakening a compassionate heart.
With warmth, humour and clarity, Pema invites us to “start where we are” — not by trying to escape discomfort, but by meeting it with honesty and gentleness.
A deeply accessible introduction to mind training, self-compassion and working skillfully with challenging emotions.
Ideal For:
• Readers new to Buddhist-inspired practice • Those navigating emotional difficulty • Anyone interested in practical compassion • Students of lojong / mind training • A beautiful companion to When Things Fall Apart
