Start Where You Are : A Guide to Compassionate Living

While I’m not a practicing Buddhist, there are many aspects of Buddhism I feel drawn to. From my experience, there are no better teachings on how to be more compassionate, kind and loving. About ten years ago, I checked out Pema Chodron’s audio program called “Awakening Compassion” from the library. This introduction to her changed my life. Since then, I have read nearly everything this Buddhist nun has written. I recommend “Start Where You Are…” as being one of her very best books.
