This Quick Practice Will Make You Feel Lighter | Jay Michaelson

Über diese Folge

<p dir="ltr">A guided loving-kindness meditation from Jay Michaelson that ditches the phrases and uses visualization instead.</p> <p dir="ltr">If you've done traditional metta (loving-kindness) practice before, you know it involves bringing people to mind and repeating phrases like "May you be happy, may you be healthy." It's a great practice. But sometimes the words can get you stuck in your head—thinking about what would actually make this person happy, or getting into stories about their suffering.</p> <p dir="ltr">This version takes away the verbal element. Instead, you work with a visualization: imagining a warm, golden light in your heart center that you can extend outward.</p> <p dir="ltr">Fair warning: this involves imagination. If that makes you roll your eyes, that's fine. But as the Beatles said, "The love you take is equal to the love you make." It's worth a try.</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.jaymichaelson.net/">Jay Michaelson</a> is our Teacher of the Month for February.
