ALL ARE WELCOME

Kim started this weekly practice community in 2015 at The Interdependence Project. Beginners as well as more experienced meditators are welcome to join this event. Buddhists, non-Buddhists, and people of any tradition can participate.  

This community is committed to recognizing both the unique experience of each individual, as well as the collective experience all living beings share.

THE LIBERATION OF THE MIND THROUGH LOVE

METTA MEDITATION

Metta, translated as "lovingkindness", is the practice of offering kindness and compassion to yourself and other living beings.  A traditonal Buddhist method of mind training, LKM has become increasingly popular as western research indicates it increases positive emotions and feelings of social connection, decreases physical pain,activates empathy and emotional processing, slows aging, curbs self-criticism, and decreases biases towards others.  You can read more about LKM research at this link.
