Hello and welcome. We're so grateful you're here. Our meditation will begin shortly,

after a brief word from our sponsors, who make these meditations available for free, for everyone.

Thank you so much for supporting the show.

Hey there, it's Judy Agarad.

If your heart's been feeling a little tight or guarded lately,

this meditation is your gentle space to open back up.

No fixing.

No forcing.

Just softening.

Right here.

Together. together. Come inside, inviting yourself to settle into deep comfort. Relaxing your jaw, your shoulders, your chest and belly, and your arms and legs and breathe following your breath in and out.

And surrendering yourself to its soothing, slow rhythm. Now see if you can imagine a soft pink ball of light, shining within you at your center.

Feel its warmth. It's comforting glow of loving kindness within you

with every breath, watch as your soft pink ball of light radiates its glow into all the parts of your body. F you up entirely with loving kindness, with generosity, with compassion, with gentleness.

You feel light, loved and whole.

Breathe. Now see if you can imagine a crowd of people all around you.

As you look around, you see those you love, your friends, family, acquaintances, colleagues, colleagues. Now imagine that your beautiful pink light radiates out onto all of them, covering them with

your loving kindness, and letting them feel your empathy, connectedness, and love.

Notice how much deeper your own love grows

as you share it with others.

How much lighter you are.

How much more joy there is inside of you.
