Alchemy Of The Heart/Tonglen

Through the alchemy of the heart, we can transform hate into love, indifference into empathy, confusion into wisdom. This 11th century Tibetan practice called "Tonglen" or "sending & receiving" recognizes our human heart as an alchemical vessel which takes in the suffering around us and encourages us to offer in return, peace, ease, compassion, etc. This body centered heart practice is needed more than ever.

I was so moved and supported by this Tonglen meditation. I feel ease and peace after completing this. Also I so appreciated you talking about your grandson and his struggle with addiction. I am worried about my daughter and listening to you and bringing her to mind was so perfect for me today. Thank you❤️

I was looking for a supportive practice to help with my grief and fear around a family member’s addiction struggles, and then you mentioned using Tonglen for your own family member! I am so grateful you shared this practice and one of the ways you utilize it. Very serendipitous for me tonight. I will also return to this guidance of Tonglen often.

Loved this practice. Just beautiful, thank you 🙏❤️
