2026-01-12 Dry Metta (Retreat at Spirit Rock) 54:17
Diana Winston
This short talk and guided practice introduces us to "dry metta", the metta practice which is focused on intention building and changing our inner narrative. It invites us to repeat simple phrases without any intention or need to feel the quality of metta. It's a lovely simple way to practice that takes the pressure off metta!
