Tonglen Meditation

Tonglen is a Tibetan word that means “giving and receiving.” The practice of Tonglen helps us to discover that generosity is nourishing and that being generous helps us to feel our wealth. Tonglen is also a powerful tool for getting over the fear of impermanence and for healing ourselves and others.

it was a practice that leaves you wanting more - because we are learning to give in the ways that can best support others while being able to stay true to our own conditions. it leaves an invitation to give more

Very helpful meditation ! Thankyou

Beautiful meditation. Thank you.

Having recently discovered Tonglen, with it's variations, this is a powerful practice. And this version, which also explains the roots of this, goes deep! I feel more expansive & connected. Thank you 🙏🏻😊

Wonderful, powerful tonglen. Thank you!

This is the strongest spiritual practise that I know! Thank you a lot for this!

This is exactly what has been missing for me.

A refreshingly different version to what I am familiar with. Thank you 🙏🏽

Not necessarily the most relaxing but powerful and intense.

My heart feels so overwhelmed with grief about the loss of lives in Palestine right now. The loss of journalists. The loss of connectivity. I need to do this practice daily. I know it is what we all need now more than ever before. Thank you so much for sharing the teachings of our wise ancestors who came before.

The war in Israel and palestine has been hanging heavy in my heart today. So much violence and pain that makes you want to look away. I needed this practice today to continue opening my heart. Thank you

There is so much to be learned and gained from this approach. Thank you for the introduction. I am looking forward to bringing this into my life. 🙏

Fabulous thank you. Such a beautiful meditation.

Altruism isn’t just a thing we ‘have’, it’s a skill, and beautifully practiced here🙏🏻

Very helpful

Thank you for teaching me this heart sharing meditation. I will return to it often.

Amazing exercise of giving away and filling oneself up with the power of abundance

In deep gratitude. You "accidentally" showed up on my phone today, as I was contemplating what process I wished to convene with my long time Soul Lab group when we will gather by ZOOM for perhaps the 200th time next week, my turn again to lead. Of course. Tonglen will take us deep into our hearts of gratefulness. The sharing will be profound and life giving, each of us a fractile of Divine love. Thank you. My heart is grateful.

Very powerful meditation practice. It really challenged my personal image of altruism. Thank you.

Good tonglen practice thxs

This added a new twist on tonglen for me and I found it very helpful. It gave me some take-a ways also.

A simple background of tonglen, and then a practice that works with offering out what you already possess. I feel more open and grateful. It was interesting to send the traits I value in myself, instead of just universal healing energy. Thank you!

A beautiful practice. Thanks 🙏🏻
