On this episode, I offer a way to put self-compassion into practice by sharing a 10-minute guided Lovingkindness meditation. This type of meditation involves silently repeating a mantra and extending love and compassion toward yourself, then toward someone you love, then toward all beings. \n\nThe full meditation is written out on the shownotes page: yogalandpodcast.com/episode72\n\nShoutout to our sponsors:\n1.
