Join Jenny for a New Year Meditation and discussion on embracing yourself with loving-kindness!
Maitri is a Sanskrit word for loving-kindness, an embodied, lived friendship with ourselves, going deeper than just kindness. During this tender one time session, you will learn ways to embrace yourself with maitri by approaching your own inner world with unconditional kindness, compassion and friendliness - treating yourself with the same care you would a loved one.
Loving-kindness is a radical act of love. Some may have only ever felt self criticism or self judgment.
Cultivating an unconditional friendship with oneself is a slow and patient process. There is no better moment than now, in this New Year, to allow maitri / loving-kindness to break open your heart, no better moment than now to befriend yourself. This session will close with a New Year Loving-Kindness Meditation for self, others, all beings and our world.
Beginner friendly: all are welcome!
Cost on a sliding scale – please pay what you are able: $25, $35 or $45. Some partial scholarships available: DrepungGomangCompassion@gmail.com. Register HERE or call 502-614-5616.
