Each Friday will begin with a Traditional Metta Meditation that is free and open to the public (register here). Often translated as βloving-kindness,β Metta has been used to foster patience, compassion, and acceptance for over 25,000 years. Research now shows that practicing a simple mantra-based meditation for 12 minutes a day can transform how we handle conflict and feel more connected and openβeven life gets really stressful.
Weβll then integrate the principles of our Metta meditation with a loving-kindness slow flow and relax practice. Progressively, we will balance the nervous system, release tension, and expand our breathing in order to fully embody our compassion practice. Step by step, you'll build a supportive foundation allowing you to release deep stress, which is a barrier to energy, healing, and self-love. Most importantly, you'll learn simple, repeatable, tools that you can take off the mat and into your daily life.
As you come home to your body, breath, mind, and heart, you will replenish essential resourcesβphysically, mentally, and emotionallyβand create a container where we can embody and integrate our loving-kindness practice in our lives.
Cultivating this compassion helps us set conditions for more clarityβseeing, listening, feeling, sensingβand create more ways to connect rather than cut off. It is through this deep warmth of loving friendship that we are able to really open our hearts to ourselves and others. So when we do befriend ourselves this way, itβs not only good for us, it's good for everyone we come into contact with.
PAIR THIS PRACTICE WITH MY FREE WEEKLY DEEP LISTENING MEDITATION FRIDAYS AT 9:30 AM ET.
