Class Description:

Guided Loving-Kindness Meditation Series for Beginners. Lovingkindness meditation or compassion meditation uses a phrase or set of phrases as your point of focus or anchor. Some people also call this type of meditation a mantra meditation. In a lovingkindness meditation, phrases like: may I be safe, may I be happy, may I be healthy, may I be at ease, are offered first to yourself, and then to a series of other people, including a benefactor, a friend, a neutral person, someone who you find difficult, and then all beings everywhere. The goal of this type of meditation is to recognize that we all wish to be happy, and yet are connected by the share experience of our humanity., cycling through periods of joy, pain, pleasure, and sorrow. This practice helps you cultivate compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity for yourself and others as well as many other mental and physical health benefits. Learn more about the
