Love Your Neighbor as You Should Love Yourself

It's not easy to love yourself. Drawing inspiration from Leviticus 19:18, let's do an exercise in Loving-kindness. First, a reflection on what makes you unique, great, and lovable. Second, a reaching outward on the ways in which loss and grief are signs of abiding love. Third, an acceptance that grudges and resentments stem from a lack of loving behavior.

Compassion for Pain

Pain can be extreme. What if you could distribute the acute pain in one part of your body to all around the whole body? Then, it might just be a tingle. Try it!
