About this episode
This guided meditation, grounded in the practice of Metta, invites us to awaken the heart by softening the body and quieting the mind. We begin with the simple image of a smile—opening to warmth, ease, and presence. With a tender attention, we rest with breath, sensations, and sound—gently returning when the mind drifts. As we offer loving phrases like "May I feel happy" and "May I be free," we nourish a deep sense of well-being and connection, embracing this life with compassion and an open heart.
