During this Kindness to Self mindfulness meditation you will direct loving kindness toward yourself. Traditionally self kindness and compassion practices start with yourself because without loving yourself it can very difficult to love others. During this meditation you will internally recite a number of key phrases and allow the feelings to permeate your body and mind.

When you feel you have established a strong sense of lovingkindness for yourself, you can then expand this meditation to include others such as family, friends or co-workers.
