Before listening to this meditation on embracing the wounded child in our parents, Sister Dang Nghiem suggests that we first take some time to meet and embrace the inner child within ourselves. This meditation can be found here.
In this recording, Sister Dang Nghiem invites us to contemplate our parents as children: fragile, vulnerable and having suffering of their own. We are invited to contemplate how our parents as children continue within us, in our thoughts, speech and bodily actions - and how we can embrace the children of our parents with our stable posture, mindful breathing and heart of compassion.
