MM: Metta (Loving-Kindness)
from The Middle Way with Dr. Matthew Goodman Hosted by Matthew Goodman, PhD
Monday Mini: Metta (Loving-Kindness) 1. Think about someone close to you (who you have a positive relationship with). Bring the image of that person to mind as clearly as possible. 2. Extend wishes of loving-kindness and goodwill towards that person. For example (use your own authentic words/phrases): "May you be happy" "May you be healthy" "May you live with ease and joy" "May you be free of suffering" 3. Bring a neutral person to mind (someone who you sort of know, or even a stranger). Extend those same wishes of goodwill towards them. 4. If you'd like, bring a difficult person to mind (someone who challenges you - this may be someone you know, or don't know). Extend those same wishes of goodwill towards them. 5. Finally, and most importantly, turn your loving-kindness around towards yourself. Repeat the same words/phrases and include your self in your circle of compassion. Enjoying the podcast??
