"e;When something is bothering you-a person is bugging you, a situation is irritating you, or physical pain is troubling you-you must work with your mind, and that is done through meditation. Working with our mind is the only means through which we'll actually begin to feel happy and contented with the world that we live in."e; -Pema Chodron Pema Chodron is treasured around the world for her unique ability to transmit teachings and practices that bring peace, understanding, and compassion into our lives.
