Listening to Our Body Brain | Sister Dang Nghiem |
![]() |
Part of a new series of practices kindly offered by mindfulness teacher Sister Dang Nghiem, this audio offers guidance on awareness of the body in the body which helps us recognize feelings as they arise, allowing our intelligence to distinguish them and investigate their root cause.
In this exercise, you listen to the general messages of your body, such as whether it is relaxed or tense or jittery; comfortable or in pain; upright and open, or slouched and drawn in. Listen also to the messages sent from the skin, muscles, and joints. ➛ The content of this audio draws on Sister Dang Nghiem's latest book, Flowers in the Dark (2021), a deeply thoughtful guide to healing trauma with mindfulness practice. By bringing together her lived experience as a survivor, a certified MD, and an ordained Buddhist teacher, she offers a body-based, practical approach to healing from the most difficult and painful life experiences. ------- Find out more about Flowers in the Dark on the Parallax website ➛ https://www.parallax.org/product/flowers-in-the-dark/ ------- Listen to more short guided meditations on the FREE Plum Village App https://plumvillage.app/ Enjoy! 🙏 Help us caption and translate this video: https://web.plumvillage.app/subs?yt=EtLGt1XR_eg #PlumVillageApp #FlowersInTheDark |
