The traditional loving-kindness meditation focuses on developing feelings of goodwill, kindness and warmth towards others. Amongst much research on this simple practice, Frederickson (2008), found that practicing seven weeks of loving-kindness meditation increased love, joy, contentment, gratitude, pride, hope, interest, amusement, and awe. These positive emotions went on to support increased mindfulness, purpose in life, social support and decreased illness symptoms. Try it and see for yourself!

A walking meditation is helpful for moving you out of your head and into your body. If your mind is busy or anxious, a focused walk can support you in connecting with the present moment. This meditation uses the breath to relax both body and mind; and takes time to ground, even whilst walking. A good choice if seated meditation is not appealing, you are new to meditation and find sitting for a longer period difficult or you need some fresh air.
