We all have the seeds of love in us.
We can develop this wonderful source of energy,
nurturing the unconditional love
that does not expect anything in return.
– Thich Nhat Hanh
Dear friends,
I hope you’re enjoying this warm and sunny weekend.
Thanks to everyone who came to practice together at our bi-monthly
Afternoon of Mindfulness. Here is the full transcript of the dharma
talk that we read together. And here is the guided self love
meditation:
May I be happy
May I be peaceful and at ease
May I be free from suffering
May I be safe from harm
May I learn to love and accept myself unconditionally
May I learn to recognize what is good, beautiful and true in me
Our next Afternoons of Mindfulness for young people (from 16 to early
30s) is Saturday 14th July.
