Getting Unstuck
$24.95
Have you ever had an itch—and not scratched it? In the Buddhist
tradition, this points to a vast paradox: that by refraining from our
urge to “scratch,” great peace and happiness is available. On Getting
Unstuck, Pema Chödrön introduces a rare Tibetan teaching she received
from her teacher, Dzigar Kontrul Rinpoche, and one that has become
critical to her practice. Here, she unveils the mystery of an ineffable
quality; a “pre-emotional” feeling that arises in us, brings us
discomfort, and causes us to react by escaping the discomfort—often
with harmful habits. With Getting Unstuck, she offers us a first look
at “both the itch and the scratch."

More about this product:
On this new, full-length recording, Pema Chödrön—bestselling author and
beloved American Buddhist nun—shows us how to recognize shenpa, catch
it as it appears, and develop a playful, lively curiosity toward it.
Join Pema Chödrön to discover more about:
• Critical mind—how
to recognize this fundamental shenpa, and approach yourself and others
with a sense of humor and loving-kindness
• Ways to unravel the patterns of self-denigration, and develop the fundamental maitri—loving-kindness—toward yourself
• How to cultivate acceptance of your irritability, insecurities, and other simply human traits
• Recognition, Refrain, Relaxing, and Resolve: the four R’s of working with shenpa, and more
An
urge comes up, we succumb to it, and it becomes stronger, teaches Pema
Chödrön. We reinforce our cravings, habits, and addictions by giving in
to them repeatedly. On Getting Unstuck, Chödrön guides us through this
“sticky feeling”—exploring the moments when we get hooked—and offers us
tools for learning to stay with our uneasiness, soften our hearts
toward ourselves and others, and live a more peaceful life in the
fullness of the present moment.
