The Practice of Releasing and Letting Go

Thich Nhat Hanh · octobre 16, 2008 · Plum Village, France · Audio uniquement Pas encore verifiées

With the practice of mindful breathing you can generate joy through three concrete methods the Buddha offers:

release – letting go of ideas and obstacles that block happiness
mindfulness – being fully aware of “the blue sky, the beautiful hills, the face of your lovely child” in the present moment
concentration – sinking deeply into whatever you are doing so your joy is full and undistracted

Yesterday’s four exercises on mindful breathing:

“Breathing in, I know this is my in-breath. Breathing out, I know this is my out-breath.”
“Breathing in, I follow my in-breath all the way through … breathing out, I follow my out-breath all the way through.”
“Breathing in, I am aware of my whole body.”
deep total relaxation – releasing body tension by breathing in and out

The Buddha’s fifth through eighth exercises on the realm of feelings:

bring in a feeling of joy – the hope of water in the desert
bring in a feeling of happiness – drinking the water, deep peace beyond excitement
recognize painful feelings – see anger, fear or despair as they arise with mindfulness
embrace and release painful feelings – tenderly hold and let go of their density by mindful breathing or walking
