Equanimity and Attachment
By now, if you have been practicing with these email blasts, you will have developed a bit of experience with a wide variety of mindfulness practices. I’ve decided that for the rest of the summer, it might be useful to get deep practice with one specific practice.
In 1967, the Beatles released the single, “All You Need is Love.” Recent research has indicated that metta, or Loving-Kindness meditations may make the most changes in our lives. So, with that in mind, for the rest of the summer, we will practice solely loving kindness. You may want to keep a journal to see if you notice any changes in your lives. Recall that this type of practice is linked to fast changes that lead to happiness and a sense of well-being. These practices reduce conflict and help us to be compassionate to ourselves as well as others.
For this morning, I picked a kind of wild one. See what you think…
May you be happy!
Michele
