Here I offer a guided meditation into lovingkindness for people whom challenge us. People we may not like very much, if at all. We explore this by connecting with the challenging person's humanity, recognizing that they, just like us, want to be free from suffering and want to be happy. After this we move into offering the gift of lovingkindness in the form of phrases. Lovingkindness has a transformational, healing quality. Enjoy! Meditation can be challenging at times. Occasionally we may experience things which surprise as a result. If you have any questions or concerns in regards to this, or other meditation practices, please feel free to message me through my website: www.suchsweetthunder.org I have been practicing meditation for 36 years and has been successfully teaching meditation worldwide since 2009, giving talks, facilitating retreats, and have authored two books.
