Finding Peace with Self-Tonglen: A 10-Minute Meditation Guide

Tonglen is a practice of breathing in suffering and breathing out compassion. It sounds paradoxical, but it is transformative. By accepting and welcoming our own pain, we can find peace and healing.
Ever heard of breathing in suffering and breathing out compassion? It might sound a bit odd, but that's the essence of Self-Tonglen, an ancient Buddhist practice designed to ease our inner turmoil. In this episode of the Happy Mind podcast, host Serena takes you on a calming journey through a 10-minute Self-Tonglen meditation session. You don't need to decipher your problems or spend years in therapy.
Just follow the rhythm of your breath and thoughts, and feel the weight lift off your shoulders. Serena walks you through each step, focusing on breath, mindfulness, and self-compassion. She also shares practical tips to tackle common challenges you might face during the practice. By visualizing different versions of yourself—one representing your best self and another embodying your pain—you'll learn to accept and transform your suffering.
Whether you're new to meditation or looking for a fresh approach, this episode offers a straightforward guide to integrating Self-Tonglen into your daily life. Tune in and discover how this simple practice can bring profound peace and healing.
