Being Kind to Yourself - A Guided Mindfulness Meditation

This is a new guided mindfulness meditation on kindness toward yourself - it is a reminder that we all have pain, challenges, and struggles in life. It is ok to feel sadness and grief at times, and we are deserving of forgiveness toward ourselves and freedom from suffering. Take a few moments for healing. Relax and free yourself from the stress and anxiety in life.
Let the dialogue and ambient music soundtrack guide you. There are about 9 minutes of guided meditation and then 3 additional minutes of silent meditation to end the session. You deserve kindness!
This video was created as part of a research grant project at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Thank you to Clinical Social Worker Alison Noyes for sharing her expertise on the subject of mental health.

    The vibes I got from these visuals and music combined are "nostalgic and heartwarming" and "beautiful and looking to the future".

I pray that I will get the strength and focus to do this and not to sabotage lots of work done by me and others. I wish I had been firmer about this task not being a good one for my skills set but too late now. I need to rise to the challenge and know God will carry me.

    I find it so hard to be mindful. My anxiety strikes me just before work, like 10 or so minutes before I have to leave for work. It also strikes at work where I can’t take a moment to be mindful because I’m in a situation that makes me uncomfortable. It’s hard to tell myself to go easy on myself in an environment where I’m constantly told to do more and do it better if I take a moment to center myself.

    Loving kindness for Devone, delivering a vegan pizza in safety and comfort. Avalokitesvara smiles upon Devone and they are not followed by bandits nor do they fall to sickness or tragedy. Successfully cultivating Buddhist thought. Lovingkindness a vegan pizzeria is getting a chance to prove it's worth. Unfortunately lately I found meat in the food of a new restaurant, and an old one. I take the time to extricate myself with a vegan diet In order to save sentient beings, I would like mercy from those who could make a joke and try to introduce meat products and therefore incurring the karma of dealing with that meat. I would like to avoid those situations, in the future. I am saying if there is kindness for Devone and they can pass freely without stress as they need, in the end there is meditation achieved and that equates to kindness for me when what arrives is Buddha. Lovingkindness the hearts are simply good and interested in veganism at iits mention yet usually humbled by their beginning diet, may they be encouraged again and again to grow the vegan habit because eventually they will succeed.. the nature of mind
