TRANSCENDENT Meditation for Loneliness & Connection | Never Sit Alone (Love & Connection Part 10/10)

A guided meditation for loneliness, connection and meditating together, wherever you are. The final part of a 10-part series on love, connection and transcendence, inspired by Barbara Fredrickson's Love 2.0. A grounded, secular meditation to feel part of a community and carry the practice off the cushion, into your everyday life.

In this meditation:
Fredrickson's research says love needs connection, and physical presence is key: thinking of loved ones or practising loving-kindness alone is good for you, but it isn't yet shared. No app can give you a hug. What practice can do is remind you that you're not as alone as you feel, and prepare you for real moments of connection, because the biggest benefits of meditation show up off the cushion. We don't meditate to get better at meditating. We meditate to get better at living and loving. In this series finale, we sit together and recap the whole journey: micro-moments, positivity resonance, from me to we, safety, the ego, love as a verb, interdependence, nature and love begets love.

This meditation is for you if you want to:
• Feel less lonely and more connected
• Meditate with others and feel part of a community
• Bring your meditation practice off the cushion and into daily life
• Revisit the key ideas of the Love, Connection & Transcendence series
• Practise a secular, non-religious meditation for love
