Well, Tonglen is a lovely practice. Here, I encourage the practice of Metta, which is of like heart. Metta is actually a practice from the Theravada tradition.

As a matter of fact, I am about to post a little essay on the Metta practice by a Theravadan writer. Look for that in a few days.
There is not really the same practice in Japanese Zen.
