These courses explore the richness and depth of the Loving-Kindness meditation practice, which teaches us how to develop kindness and compassion towards ourselves and others, opening our hearts and dissolving the barriers we have built around ourselves. We learn to become more aware of our emotions and our emotional responses, gradually re-orienting ourselves to more positive mental and emotional states.
Some of the benefits of doing the Loving Kindness practice are:
- more at ease with oneself
- better able to relate to others
- more emotionally resilient
- less overwhelmed by suffering of others

The course is suitable for beginners to meditation as well as to more experienced meditators
