I started doing the Loving Kindness meditation with Amy in July 2018. These are the basic sentiments expressed in it.
May I be kind and patient with myself
May I love and accept myself for what I am
May I forgive myself my mistakes
May I be safe and free from suffering
May I feel happy and healthy
May I find peace, joy and ease of well-being
These feelings start in the heart, spread throughout the body, limbs and head, throughout the house and reach out to other people and beings, to family, friends, neighbours, the whole world, the solar system and all corners of the universe and then all the way back into the heart once more. This meditation also includes breath awareness, slow and calm, and a body scan.
The Loving Kindness meditation is used to help treat sufferers of PTSD. I have found it particularly helpful.
