In Tibetan, the word for equanimity is tang-nyom. Tang means ‘release’ and nyom means ‘equalize.’ Equanimity is not about feeling fine with whatever happens. It has more to do with relaxing with what is….This is at the root of true equanimity, and when the focus on suffering can be softened, Fours will find they have a gift for it.
