Fantastic reading. Powerful book. Thank you so much!

First time to the AAL today. 😊
First time hearing your voice Sen Naomi. 😊
Not my first time hearing or reading Pema. 😊
I was too anxious and frozen, panicked, struggling, to stay with this beyond 15 minutes. But it was a stepping stone across the raging river so to speak. ❤️
Will of course be back.
Hope *you* are feeling better! 🥰🤗

This was so amazing! Could you possibly read the other chapters as well?

Wow, thank you for all the free content you provide! I am so grateful. Would you happen to have the Invention of Women?

[@anarchistaudiolibrary]

I don't have it but just looked it up and it seems like a really cool read! Will try and track down a copy sometime, thanks for the rec!

Thank you! Love your voice reading this! Is the rest of the book read by you available for purchase?

[@anarchistaudiolibrary]

I don't sell anything or have a patreon or anything paywalled! I put this one out as a taste, but I'm glad to hear it resonated! I'm going through EMDR right now and could probably use a reread of it, just no promises, I've been pretty burnt emotionally lately (unsurprisingly)

@@anarchistaudiolibrary Thank you for your reply! Hoping for beauty to emerge as you go through EMDR. ✨ If you decide to reread it and do so aloud I’d enjoy making a donation somehow. Blessings.

It's widely available from bookshops. You should have no problem finding it. It's so beautiful and inspiring that it's really worth buying so that you can read and re-read and then read again, savouring and contemplating the wisdom Pema Chödrön shares. ❤
