Metta Monday
What is Metta?
Metta, the practice of lovingkindness. A compassionate practice that offers warmth and care
The essence of Metta meditation practice is that it opens space, makes a home in the heart. It stretches you wider than dreamed possible. It is a practice that unzips the polyester puffy overcoats, the layers upon layers of protection and conditioning, over your heart.
Metta is a practice that invites in a gesture of ease. of generosity. of authentic-real that does not discount the stubborn grip of the fixating mind and offers spiritual friendship to the crazy-making ‘down-the-rabbit-hole’ mind.
It is a practice that holds the fundamental truth that all beings wish to be happy. Sometimes, we all do this in not the most skillful or effective ways. That is why gentleness, another useful practice, is required with our road rash and broken.
Here is a warm invitation to join me for Metta (LovingKindness) meditation weekly on Mondays at 2pm, offered by donation.
