Guy Armstrong
Metta practice makes the heart more sensitive to the joys and sorrows we are subject to. This tenderness becomes the avenue for us to discover our deep connection to all of life and end a sense of isolation.

2011-07-18 Whose Love is it Anyway? 57:37
James Baraz
Although metta practice can seem dualistic (me sending love to others) it is really an anatta practice that reveals the selfless nature of reality. The love that connects us isn't owned by anyone. This talk includes two guided meditations: 1) metta towards self and 2) seeing ourselves as part of a lineage of benefactors-the love and caring we receive from others passing through us to those we care about and support.

2011-07-17 Metta: Near and Far Enemies 59:27
Guy Armstrong
Metta (loving kindness) practice leads us into the exploration of all of the heart's responses to life. Especially good grounds for understanding are in the experience of loving kindness, its near enemy of affection with attachment, and its far enemy of ill will.

2011-07-16 Relaxing into Kindness 54:40
Sally Armstrong
Intensive metta practice can be challenging on many levels - body, heart and mind. One of the most supportive things we can do to deepen the intention of love and kindness is to consciously and deliberately relax; truly relax in mind and body.
