Welcoming the Unwelcome: Wholehearted Living in a Brokenhearted World by Pema Chödrön

5.0

 This book was  recommended by my therapist and I read the first 40% really fast and the last 60% really slow. Not because of the pacing of the book, but more because of my own life.  However, as soon as I finished it (with sticky tabs and margin notes throughout), I felt like I needed to go back to the beginning and start again. This book is very accessible and it asks the reader to really open up to their own fears and perceived inadequacies while also looking outwards and examining how you can affect yourself and the people around you. Highly recommend this if you have been struggling with finding a path that includes happiness in a world where it seems like something horrible is happening every single minute of the day in our world.
