Dear friends,


I'm just back from teaching a metta retreat at the Insight Meditation Society—a week of slowing down, tending to the heart, and practicing lovingkindness together in community. I came home full.


As a small offering from that time, I want to share two things with you:


You can listen to them here. May they be of benefit.


I also wanted to let you know that tonight we begin a new 10–12 week series at Clear Dharma Sangha on the Brahmaviharas: the four profound heart qualities of lovingkindness, compassion, appreciative joy, and equanimity.


If you've been curious about joining CDS, this is a beautiful moment to drop in. You're warmly welcome—tonight or any week along the way.

Oren
