I learned the practice of Tonglen from Pema Chodron.

I'm stationed in Brooklyn, and I take the subway a lot. Sometimes there's a tension in the air, so I breathe in the tension, seeing it as a dark, cold, oily cloud, allow it to be transformed by my heart into a warm mist of healing light, then breathe out comfort, ease and joy.

It seems to work.
