Loving-Kindness Meditation (Metta)

Loving-kindness meditation, or Metta, is a practice focused on cultivating genuine feelings of compassion, warmth, and goodwill towards oneself and others. It involves silently repeating phrases or intentions, such as wishing happiness and well-being for oneself, loved ones, acquaintances, and even difficult individuals. This practice helps to foster positive emotions, reduce negative thoughts, and build a sense of connection and empathy. Over time, it can enhance emotional resilience, improve relationships, and contribute to overall well-being by nurturing a mindset of kindness and acceptance.
