Loving Kindness Can Heal Our Hearts and Minds

Many people I talk to say they have trouble being kind to themselves. It is not easy to overcome old habits, but with practice old habits can be superseded by new ones.

So here are some free practice videos to experience loving kindness for ourselves and others. Take easy people that you do not have big problems with. Eventually even those may come into your practice, but start out easy.

Thank you so much for these video links! I find practising loving kindness can greatly change the way we look at us and the world to the better.

I've listened to a couple so far, and they're wonderful. Thank you for sharing!

@GoldenNest2727 you are most welcome. By focusing on others I lessen my preoccupation with my own happiness, but the net result is I feel more content.
