Merry Metta!!🎁😇💜🎄✨️🎆
Give yourself the gift of peace and joy this holiday season, with a Metta practice.🌹
Metta is the Buddhist prayer practice of loving kindness. First you give loving kindness to yourself, then intend it to others. It is a simple and practical prayer practice you can do anywhere, anytime.
During the holiday season, give the gift of peace to yourself and then give it to everyone you love, feel neutral towards or despise. As you willingly adopt this powerful peace prayer into your everyday life, you will receive the benefits of loving kindness and heal your heart and mind. You become a loving kindness ambassador, creating unity, peace and harmony in yourself, while inspiring goodwill in others, which heals the world, one person, one situation at a time.
The Metta practice is a powerful prayer that ignites your compassionate, loving heart, which gives you the gifts of unity, peace, harmony and joy. 💜💜💜
🎁✨️NOW LET'S PRACTICE METTA: ✨️🎁
Repeat these powerful words with love from your heart to yourself:
I am safe
I am happy
I am healthy
I am at peace
Say this prayer 3 or more times to yourself.
Then think of a beneficiary, someone you trust and love .
Then repeat from your heart, the following, at least 3 times or more:
You are safe
You are happy
You are healthy
You are at peace
Now think of a neutral beneficiary, someone you have neutral feelings about, like a stranger at the bus stop, a store clerk, a cab driver, etc. and repeat from your heart, at least 3 times or more:
You are safe
You are happy
You are healthy
You are at peace
Now think of a beneficiary which is someone you dislike very much, resent, or find unlovable, you can even use this for groups of people, and situations that you find intolerable. Now repeat at least 3 times or more :
You are safe
You are happy
You are healthy
You are at peace.
Once you have completed your rounds of Metta, you can do this as often as needed, to obtain inner peace, compassion and loving kindness towards yourself and all others.
You will find yourself happier and friendlier to everyone, as you have risen to the precious place of unity, peace and harmony which heals the world. A beautiful gift you have given yourself.
✨️'Tis the season for tidings of great joy✨️
