Kind thoughts

Send warm wishes to yourself, someone you love, and then everyone else.

Kind thoughts

Find somewhere comfortable. You can stop whenever you like.

What you'll be doing
  1. Settle in and place a hand on your chest if that feels good.
  2. Think of yourself. Quietly say: may I be safe, may I be well.
  3. Say it again, and let it be as warm as you can manage today.
  4. Bring to mind someone you love. May you be safe, may you be well.
  5. Picture them smiling. Stay with that for a moment.
  6. Now think of someone you hardly know, like a neighbour or a shop worker. Wish them well too.
  7. Widen it out to everyone, near and far. May we all be safe and well.
  8. Come back to your own breath, and carry the warmth with you.
