The thing about Mettā is that it’s about you first. I was reminded of this during a Dharma talk I attended this week put on by the Insight Yoga Institute. The speaker, Tripti, reminded us that Mettā has to start with loving kindness for the self. Like we are always reminded when we fly: put your oxygen mask on first. Then, you will be safe and available to assist others.
I used to end with “May I,” and begin with “May all beings.” Perhaps it was easier for me to direct love out than to usher it in. I’d likely guess many of you reading this feel similarly.
So, let’s flip it and give ourselves the air we need! By holding ourselves in love, we can then share it with others.
May I be well.
