Compassionate Friend

This meditation is a compassion-based practice, and it involves a guided visualization. This practice is an opportunity to feel totally at ease in a physical space, and to receive words you need to hear from a compassionate friend who comes to visit. If visualization is challenging for you, you might instead imagine a warm presence or white light in place of a physical being.

*This is a practice from the Mindful Self Compassion (MSC) program, an evidence-based eight-week program, in which I am a Trained Teacher. MSC was created by Dr. Kirstin Neff & Dr. Christopher Germer at the Centre for Mindful Self-Compassion.
