A Listener Finally Made Meditation Stick

- Three months in, the listener stopped seeing meditation as a chore and started looking forward to its benefits.
Self Compassion Expands Love For Others
- Henry Shukman says loving kindness should begin with yourself because self-compassion helps love extend outward more naturally.
- He frames this as the opposite of selfishness: kindness toward yourself increases your capacity to care for others.
Soften The Body To Settle The Mind
