Homecoming: A Loving‑Kindness Meditation. Be the first person to hold your newborn self

Love and Compassion are our most treasured capacities. Please join me for a little while to do the 2600 year old practices as taught by the Buddha.  Starting with yourself  then a benefactor and a friend. Be the first person to touch yourself as you are born. What would you like to say to that newborn as you breathe your first breath?

It’s okay if your mind wanders — the practice invites kindness for the wanderer, simple phrases like “I love you” with your name, and the warmth of breath and visualization to steady you.

Use this whenever you need tenderness, courage, or a soft reminder that you’re seen, held, and deeply loved.
