Expanding Circle of Love – Guided Meditation

This episode offers a gentle, imagery‑rich meditation designed to help you widen the circle of people (and beings) you hold with warmth and goodwill. Inspired by a discussion on the Stillness in the Storms podcast ("Circle of Love & Circle of Care"), this practice turns concept into lived experience. The practice was inspired by our earlier talk‑episode “Circle of Love & Circle of Care,” where we explored the idea that compassion can be trained like a muscle. Today we move from theory to felt experience – settling the mind, then letting love ripple outward.

Why Listen?

• Deepen empathy & soften judgment – practice seeing more of humanity as “in your circle.”
• Soothe anxiety & self‑criticism – loving‑kindness lights up the brain’s calming networks.
• Strengthen emotional resilience – caring connection is a proven buffer against stress.
• Create positive ripple‑effects – the kinder you feel inside, the kinder you act outside.

What to Expect

1. Context & gentle settling – a short reminder of the circle‑of‑care principle.
2. Guided practice – Expanding Circle of Love (no background ads, just my voice and subtle music).
3. Grounding close – simple ways to carry the feeling forward into your day.
