Overview

Acclaimed meditation teacher and author Sharon Salzberg guides us step-by-step into four essential qualities for awakening love

Have you ever found yourself struggling with anger, despair, or worry, and then someone shared a few kind words or a simple smile . . . that changed everything?

Love, for ourselves and for others, can transform our lives. Yet, it takes courage to open our hearts—and it also takes practice. With this complete audio learning program, Sharon Salzberg is here to help us.

Through insightful and inspiring teachings, including 16 guided practices, listeners will learn to break out of separation and numbness to experience greater kindness within and toward others. This program leads us there through the four life-changing virtues taught by the Buddha: lovingkindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity.

In countless moments, opportunities arise for us to either judge or support ourselves, to envy another's joy or to celebrate with them, to turn away from others or to connect. Embracing Your Boundless Heart opens the way for us to amplify love in ourselves and with our families, coworkers, communities, and even those we struggle with the most.

This program was originally presented in Tricycle magazine's online course Boundless Heart. For more information, please visit www.tricycle.org.
