Practicing with Disturbing Dreams upon Waking Up | Sister Dang Nghiem |
![]() |
Part of a new series of guided practices included in the FREE Plum Village App ➛ https://plumvillage.app The series is kindly offered by mindfulness teacher Sister Dang Nghiem. This audio offers guidance on practicing with disturbing dreams upon waking up.
"If you wake up suddenly in the middle of a nightmare, do not go back to sleep right away. Simply breathe and relax your body. "Breathing in, I am aware that I just had a nightmare. Breathing out, it is okay. It was only a dream." ➛ 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=o2QTSpoyvok #PlumVillageApp #FlowersInTheDark |
