On Good Medicine, the remarkable American-born Tibetan Buddhist nun known as Pema Ch÷dr÷n shares the gift of tonglen, a simple and elegant meditation system for ordinary people like ourselves. Through tonglen, we can use the difficulties in lifeùthose that cause the most sufferingùas a way to befriend ourselves, accept the past we have rejected, and widen our circle of compassion. These traditional breathing meditations cut through obstacles on the spot.

Skillfully distilled into a two-and-a half-hour workshop, Good Medicine offers a revolutionary practice that is already 1,000 years oldùand ready to awaken the hearts of America, right now, wherever and whoever you are.
