Part 2
Guided Loving Kindness Meditation
In the Buddhist tradition, the practice of metta, or loving kindness meditation, invites us to open our hearts to compassion, to the natural capacity of love and kindness that we all have within us. It is a wish that everyone be happy, safe, and free from suffering. Together in community, we cultivate and offer this gentle support; to ourselves, to others, and to the world. We do this to expand and grow our hearts, to gently hold both joy and suffering. Through this practice, we share positive energy and kindness toward others as we walk this journey together.
