A lamp for the path: a guided self-love meditation

The practice of metta, or loving-kindness, helps cultivate compassion starting at the source: with yourself. It’s not always easy. For many of us, receiving love — even from our own hearts — can feel unfamiliar or out of reach. But with time and practice, it becomes a way to meet yourself with tenderness and build the inner conditions for ease, connection, and resilience.

This 9-minute meditation is a small lamp for your own path. Something to return to when you need reminding that you, too, are worthy of love and care.
