Intro to Meditation: Loving Kindness

At The Grinning Yogi: This one-hour workshop offers a space to slow down, reconnect with the breath and settle the mind. Through guided breathwork and meditation, we will explore practices that support relaxation and a deeper sense of presence. For the meditation we will practice Metta, or loving-kindness meditation, a traditional meditation practice for cultivating compassion toward ourselves and others. Research suggests that this meditation can support emotional regulation, reduce stress and positively influence the brain and nervous system. Students will leave with accessible tools they can return to whenever they need to reset and reconnect.
