About This Meditation
Loving Kindness
The Buddha says that hatred cannot coexist with love and kindness. It is appeased by thoughts of love and compassion.
Loving-kindness meditation is a form of meditation which generates generous and selfless love towards ourselves and others.
This form of meditation is one which is best practised repeatedly over a number of weeks to get the greatest benefit. Benefits include not only less self-criticism and fewer self-destructive thoughts, but also more positive emotions, more resilience, and even reportedly reduced pain in many.
Give this meditation a go just now, and perhaps make it part of your daily routine for the next month and see what benefits you create for yourself.
