Dharma Talk: How to Love Oneself

by Sister Dang NghiemDecember 8, 2022

A truly enlightening Dharma talk by Sister Dang Nghiem, about teens, screens, deep joy and learning how to love oneself. It all starts with your true presence.

"I say, it is OK, I am here, I am going to take good care of you. It is OK, relax. I am safe now. I love you. I love you."

The talk is a compelling invitation to come home to yourself, and to start to love yourself truly: your body, your feelings, your mental formations, your perceptions, your consciousness. Knowing how to love yourself brings the deepest joy.

Sister Dang Nghiem dedicated this talk to all tweens and teens, but the talk is valuable for people of all ages.
