Meeting Disagreement With Compassion. A Guided Meditation

Published: June 9, 2022, 8:35 a.m.

There are 7.8 billion people in the world, so naturally we will disagree at times. In this meditation we are invited to recall or visualize a time when we were in disagreement with someone. We move into holding the felt sense of disagreement with compassion, and then offer that compassion to the one we are in conflict with. We may not agree with that person, or like that person, but we can still meet them as a human being, deserving happiness and wanting to avoid suffering.

Meditation can be challenging at times. Occasionally we may experience things which surprise as a result. If you have any questions or concerns in regards to this, or other meditation practices, please feel free to message me through my website: www.suchsweetthunder.org
