Thank you YeShey for the beautiful Winter Solstice Metta meditation.I am really enjoying the Metta meditation-loving kindness as it fits nicely with my motivation to meditate.Also I have been doing some reading on line on Metta by Sharon Salzberg.
It reinforces what Yeshey is teaching us.

Dear Michelle,

Combining yoga asana (postures) and meditation is a fantastic way to practice.

The meditation works from the inside out and the asana works from the outside in.

Yoga classes focus primarily on the body and the breath – learning how to let the breath guide the body; making the body stronger and balancing the breath . When we add meditation to the mix we are now working with body, breath and mind.

Of the three, mind has the most influence and can affect the most change. Positive emotions and thoughts balance the breath and influence the body.

Thanks for sharing.
YeShey

I really like a Metta Meditation used during a Yin Yoga practice. Both really are fitting of the Winter Solstice.
