Thank you so much for joining me here today. We are taking 30 minutes to complete a traditional Loving Kindness or Metta meditation as I know it. We repeat phrases to ourselves, sending them to different groups of people. I use the phrases: May you be happy, may you be healthy, may you be safe, may you live with ease. You can choose your own phrases, which ever feel best to you. We send these phrase to 5 groups of people. First ourselves, then a loved one or teacher, followed by someone in the public, then someone who is difficult for you, and lastly all beings everywhere. During this practice we spend roughly 5 minutes sending our phrases to each group. I believe with these practices we can change the word together. With Love, Namaste - Abbey
