There's no wrong way to do metta or lovingkindness. Sometimes the practice of cultivating lovingkindness is simply to radiate love without words. Sometimes it's to begin by holding yourself with kindness.

Lovingkindness can be an antidote to anxiety and fear. We become more gracious with the difficulties of life as we open the heart.
