<p>This is an update of this very popular Lovingkindness practice recorded in 2007. Lovingkindness meditation, or metta, is a mindfulness practice for the heart: a beautiful way to cultivate feelings of compassion and love for self, others and ultimately all beings. Lovingkindness Meditation #2 is a 25-minute guided metta practice to generate lovingkindness for a neutral person and then for a somewhat difficult person. </p> <p>Metta meditation should be done at your own pace. It is not necessary to force yourself to move onto this often more challenging metta practice until you feel fully ready.</p>
