- With The Freedom to Love, Pema Chödrön invites you to start wherever you are-with any challenges, frustrations, or fears you may be facing-and use them as the launching pad to awaken the natural and boundless capacity of your heart.
Do you want to love and connect with others more deeply, but need a little help?
Struggling with Matters of the Heart? This Is the Place to Bring Them
Through six sessions of intensive learning and practice, this beloved and gifted teacher will guide you through traditional Buddhism’s traditional awakened heart training . . . with a difference.
Pema might have named this course “Working with the Hard Stuff”-because here she’ll be showing us how to use the principles of The Four Immeasurables in our most challenging situations, relationships, and emotional states.

The young woman who realized that she has to accept her insecurities and learn to live with them just taught this old grandmother something new. Thank you, dear. Namaste.
I’m turning 54 years old in two days. I now realize what this 18 year old girl knows. My mom was an alcoholic. We were neglected in so many ways. I am now am feeling it’s okay to feel okay with my host of issues. By not bullying myself to be different I’m happier. Accepting my karma helps me love others . I think I’m kind of lucky to have had this life. I wonder if I was an alcoholic mom or dad in a past life. Lol. Probably.
Hello c7eye: Belated Happy Birthday! Just wanted to share with you a few ways that I've caught myself staying with the feelings brought by being raised by an alcoholic mom (and, father, too!): I watch myself lovingly when I: 1) am in constant movement either physically or mentally or both; 2) when I try to "fix" a situation instead of just leaving it alone; 3) when I create the sense that there is an emergency when things are really just fine.
@@cate1657 Thank you for sharing. I, too, was raised by an alcoholic mom. It's nice to know I am not alone.
What you said here is sooo moving....Thank you for your loving truth...
I think that the programming we receive in our early childhood can not actually be erased; but with the benefit of our meditation practice, we can stop, evaluate it objectively, choose not to let it enslave us, and make proper life choices.
Of course, all of that is easier typed than done; so we have to be determined to be free of our past.
I didn't have alcoholic parents, but I certainly had other issues.
❤❤❤
Sending gratitude from a Daoist monastery near Seattle (USA)!
Covid lockdowns really showed how much I need others. How I cannot live without others. I’m one person. I can’t do it all. Garbage man, cashier, gas station, trucked in food. Doctor , police, cookie maker. The list is endless.
Thank you for this presentation.
Marshall Vian Summers talks about suffering as "the crown of thorns of your own ideas and assumptions, your own misgivings and misinformation and your own unforgiveness towards yourself and the world." Marshall says there is a remedy for this pain: "Therefore all pain must be recognized as the result of your own decision...your own interpretation. You may feel that you have been wronged by another or by the world... but you must look beyond [this feeling] to its source...To do this you must utilize your own faculties. This will give you great strength. You will be able to do this because Knowledge is with you...
Without condemnation upon the world and upon yourself, the mind is at peace already." (MVS, Steps to Knowledge)
I love this. Thank you so much. Marshall must be a very wise man indeed. Will investigate further.
Thank you for your comment. I am practicing the Steps to Knowledge and it is the best book of spiritual practices I have ever used.
Thank you for this.
I accessed the Steps to Knowledge and I’m utterly stumped on the first one.
“Three times today, spend ten minutes thinking about what Knowledge is, not merely applying your own ideas, not merely applying your past understanding, but thinking about what Knowledge really is.” Ouch.
Thank you, blessed Pema, for continuing to serve. Your joy and compassion radiate. Your commitment humbles me.
Thank you for helping us
I love you Pema. You have helped me so much 🙏🏻
Wonderful talk and topic. Thank you.
There are are ways and interventions that can help heal old traumas, completely. Like NLP, Tapping/EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), TRE (Trauma Release Exercises), several chemical interventions with microdosing... etc... Trauma is NOT a life sentence.
Thank you, I didn't like that part of the talk because it isn't true or helpful to tell people that trauma is destined to be there forever. There is a lot of new work surrounding healing trauma which is very positive and gives survivors hope. I will add EMDR and somatic healing therapy to your list as further examples.
Keep on trucking old wisdom crone
Thanks!
Thank you Beloved 💖
This is excellent observation….
Until we realise suffering is illusory and intrinsically empty.
Thank U, infinite intelligence. ♾
Beautiful. 💜
I care for animals because when they suffer they don’t have the same control over their own minds that we have over ours.
I was a Buddhist before. But now I found more truth about life in Seth’s books.
Who's Seth?
I’ve read Seth since 1975 and simultaneously been a Buddhist. No crime.
When was this recorded?
❤❤❤
0:06 I am very grateful to Pema to remind these important truth with wit and humor, but nowadays I have difficulties not to hope for president B to win the elections. If he doesn’t, the world will turn upside down and I do feel scared. How don’t you, very dear Pema?
❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️
i have always favoured older torn stained shirts and used tools...i do not trust new things...i like old furniture
Do we fight for Ukraine freedom and liberty or we fight for the Vatican????
Neither.
Do we die for democracy or we die for Vatican?!?
Neither.
First off, why is she standing while rocking back and forth? It's rather distracting. It also seems as if she's distracted herself by forgetting what she wants to say.
It must be hard to look at someone who is offering you their truth and focus on the fact that she's standing and moving gently. Pema suffers from impermanence . Her body is wearing out. Still she teaches. Isn't that wonderful?
Why wouldn’t you close your eyes or look somewhere else and just listen?
The propensity to be bothered by something you have control over…your mind.
I was reincarnated as a human ...I preferred being a man eating shark
