Intermediate Workshop on Metta Bhavana

This workshop is for people who are interested in deepening their Metta Bhavana practice. We will explore each stage of the practice in depth, working in a very practical way to address issues such as:

• feeling "blank" or "gray", or not finding much emotion to work with
• difficulties with sending metta to yourself
• unexpected emotions coming up, like anger or sadness
• feeling lukewarm toward the neutral or difficult person
• or any other issues you'd like to bring with you to discuss

There will also be short talks, discussions, and guided meditations that will help us to better understand the many dimensions of metta, and how we can connect to it in a more authentic way.

This workshop is led by Sunada, who teaches the online meditation courses at Wildmind (www.wildmind.org), as well as leads classes at the Boston FWBO center in Somerville MA.
