Loving-Kindness Meditation

Loving-kindness is not just about empathy, presence, and listening with compassion to others. It is part of the difficult inner work we all face. This is the work of finding self-forgiveness, releasing shame and guilt, and loving ourselves for exactly who we are. Loving-kindness like looking at ourselves in a mirror and expressing love—then letting that love expand and grow, like two mirrors reflecting one another into infinity.
