Part of a new series of practices kindly offered by mindfulness teacher Sister Dang Nghiem, this audio offers guidance on the Buddhist practice called tri túc in Vietnamese, meaning “know that you have enough.”
Tri is to know, to remember, to master; túc means “enough.” Interestingly, túc also means “feet.” So tri túc means that you know and remember that you have enough and take good care of what you have. Additionally, it means you appreciate that you have feet, the foundation of your body!
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.
