This guided practice was recorded live in January during Anne’s 21 Days of Mindfulness and Loving Kindness program.
This meditation invites us to cultivate compassion and empathy towards someone who presents challenges in our life.
Participants are encouraged to set an intention for the practice, acknowledging any difficulties or emotions that may arise. Deep breaths help centre the mind and body before focusing attention on the challenging person chosen for the practice.
Through visualisation, we are guided to imagine the challenging person in our mind’s eye and silently repeat phrases of loving kindness: "May you be well, may you be happy, may you feel peaceful, may you feel loved."
If visualising the challenging person is too difficult, we are encouraged to imagine them as a child or use other techniques to maintain focus.
The practice of Loving Kindness offers a structured framework for cultivating compassion and empathy, fostering healing and connection even in the face of difficulty.
Anne ends on a quote emphasising the transformative power of compassion, inviting us to extend loving kindness to all beings. C5J4SqmV74Epr62XT9yD
