Metta: loving kindness even when it feels impossible

 “Metta”  is one of the four Bhramaviharas or Divine Abodes, and is most often translated as loving-kindness. In a world with seemingly stark polarities, metta invites us to love without exception, even when it feels impossible. 

Yet, through the training of the heart, there is discernment: to love wisely, not blindly. Can metta be an act of self-care and collective healing? Sonia guided us in this week’s session as we practiced and discussed metta in ways that we may not have experienced before.
