Loving Kindness Meditation for Compassion and Self-Love [NO MUSIC/SFX]
Description
This gentle, music-free version of our loving kindness meditation is ideal if you prefer a quiet, distraction-free experience.

You’ll be guided to:
🧘♀️ Focus on your breath and intention
💞 Send kindness to yourself and others
🌱 Create a sense of connection and calm
Loving kindness meditation has been shown to reduce anxiety, ease stress, and support emotional wellbeing.
