Medicine song (ikaro) by Manari Ushigua.
Most of us know the suffering of feeling separate from others. In this guided meditation, we explore how we can re-open our hearts by intentionally bringing a caring mindful presence to our own vulnerability, and then extending that presence to include others. When inhabiting that presence, we are able to respond to relational conflict and distance with a growing creativity and love.
In this talk and guided meditation we explore two different types of lovingkindness. Dry is thought-based and Wet is emotion-based. Learn the differences and practice the two types.
