Lovingkindness Meditation

Lovingkindness meditation, also known as Metta, is a practice aimed at cultivating compassion, goodwill, and positive feelings toward oneself and others. It involves silently repeating well-wishes—like “May I be happy, safe, and healthy”—and gradually extending these intentions to loved ones, acquaintances, and even challenging individuals. This practice encourages emotional openness, reduces negative judgments, and fosters a sense of interconnectedness. Over time, it can enhance emotional resilience, empathy, and overall well-being by aligning the mind toward kindness and understanding, making it a powerful tool for cultivating inner peace and harmonious relationships.
