Sanctuaries: The West Coast and Southwest

From the introduction:
We share with you a wonderful meditation we learned at the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts. Its purpose is to increase loving-kindness in the world. You say it first for yourself; then think of someone you love while saying it silently; then repeat it again thinking of someone you like; someone you feel neutral toward; someone you don't like very much; and finally send it to everyone in the world:

May you be free of inner and outer danger.
May you be free of mental suffering.
May you be free of physical suffering.
May you be able to care for yourself with ease and joy.
