Join certified mindfulness & meditation teacher Anne Muhlethaler for guided meditations and talks to explore and practice mindfulness meditation, mettā (also known as Loving Kindness) and how we can approach life with mindful intention. Built as a supplement to Anne’s other show, Out of the Clouds, where she discusses the themes of business and mindfulness in long-form interviews, this podcast is imagined as a doorway for discovery of all the various Mindfulness & Meditation practices.There is a common misunderstanding that all meditations are the same, or that there is only one type of meditation. This makes a lot of teachers like Anne giggle. It feels like equating rock climbing to football or badminton because, truthfully, different practices offer different results. Join Anne to learn about, and get a taste for, and hopefully find practices that will suit you.

Loving Kindness Towards A Challenging Person - Guided meditation

This guided practice was recorded live in January during Anne’s 21 Days of Mindfulness and Loving Kindness program.

This meditation invites us to cultivate compassion and empathy towards someone who presents challenges in our life.

Participants are encouraged to set an intention for the practice, acknowledging any difficulties or emotions that may arise. Deep breaths help centre the mind and body before focusing attention on the challenging person chosen for the practice.

Through visualisation, we are guided to imagine the challenging person in our mind’s eye and silently repeat phrases of loving kindness: "May you be well, may you be happy, may you feel peaceful, may you feel loved."

If visualising the challenging person is too difficult, we are encouraged to imagine them as a child or use other techniques to maintain focus.

The practice of Loving Kindness offers a structured framework for cultivating compassion and empathy, fostering healing and connection even in the face of difficulty.

Anne ends on a quote emphasising the transformative power of compassion, inviting us to extend loving kindness to all beings. C5J4SqmV74Epr62XT9yD
