Befriending Yourself

Guided by Kirsten DeLeo. Recorded during a Tonglen retreat at Dzogchen Beara Buddhist Meditation Centre, Ireland. In this practice, we send compassion to the aspects of ourselves that need healing attention. On the out-breath, we send compassion to these parts. On the in-breath, we embrace and dissolve them in our vast heart-space. This meditation is called Self-Tonglen, a preliminary practice to Tonglen.

Dear Kirsten, thank you so much for your lovefully companionship of my journey to my sides, who are numbed by trauma, maybe collective trauma. It was so helpful to face heartfully and warm this frozen part of me... of us. 🌱
