Compassion for a Loved one and for Ourself

Published: July 14, 2022, 4:37 a.m.

In this practice we are invited to recognize a loved one in the midst of struggle and wish them wholeheartedly to be free from that struggle. We then replace the image of the loved one with ourself, and we are then invited to feel what it feels like to be our own best friend.
